Introducing the Glass Tree-Topped Hotel Room

Situated in the forest area around Harads, Sweden, you will find Treehotel, with the initial stage completed of five near-invisible Mirrorcubes. Among those are The Blue Cone, The UFO and The Birds Nest, all suspended four to six meters above the ground and designed in eco-minded fashion by some of Scandinavia's leading architects.

Designed to blend into its surroundings so as not to ruin the view, the Mirrorcube is an addition to this collection, featuring mirrored walls that reflect their surroundings and yet are safe for passing birds thanks to a layer of infrared film. Featuring six windows and a panoramic view, the Mirrorcube accommodates two people with a double bed, bathroom, lounge, and rooftop terrace.

Perhaps most interestingly of all, the Mirrorcube is now for sale, with a delivery time of roughly four months. Retail pricing is reportedly about EUR 275,000 excluding transportation costs.

Because of the cubes ability to blend into its surroundings so well, it may be a perfect choice for those looking to create accommodation in areas of natural beauty. Treehotel is currently looking for suitable resellers for its Mirrorcube. Any takers?
