Elizabeth's Tree House Dining Hall
Elizabeth's Tree House Dining Hall
A demonstration of architecture’s role in the healing process, Elizabeth’s Tree House is a new dining pavilion for therapeutic camp in Kildare. Serving children recovering from serious illnesses the space forms a timber oasis in the middle of an oak forest. A dynamic yet functional timber diagrid system includes an expressive roof, extensive glazing, and a colorful larch cladding, creating an interior dining space that forms a dialogue with the surrounding lake and forest. Deep connection with nature at all levels promotes user comfort, relaxation, healing, and enchantment.
