Treehouses of tomorrow

ecocoon5

Yes, please: London architect Mathieu Collos has designed these awesome retreat-pod-things to be mounted to trees via high-strength steel cables. The name “EcoCoon” might be a little unfortunate, but I’m willing to overlook that because they are equipped with such futuregoodies as rain-harvesting showers, prefab structural insulated panels, biomass heating, and solar panels that are adjustable according to the foliage canopy’s density. Also, sassy dancing shadow-people. Take that, Jetsons!

More pics after the jump.
