An icosahedron is a three-dimensional geometrical shape with twenty faces. Joseph Mikrut, who has a background in architecture, engineering, industrial design, web and print marketing, nutrition, detox/cleansing, herbal medicine, and business development, decided to turn this shape into a treehouse.
Twenty feet off the ground, the treehouse is suspended by cables strung between four trees, allowing it to sway in the breeze. With views of the mountains, the treehouse is located at the Rancho Delicioso eco-village in Costa Rica, which supports projects such as an experimental organic farming learning center and tropical green-building research.
