Cabin Retreat

I designed a cabin retreat for three working class females. I designed a relaxation room with a couple couches, a television, and a fireplace. I also created an L-shaped kitchen with a table and chairs to eat meals, and play monopoly. There are two bedrooms for two of the three ladies and the other woman would need to sleep on the couch in the relaxation room. There is a deck off the back of the house with a hot tub and a table with chairs to see the great view of the mountain and the lake. There are many trees surrounding the house for complete privacy, and there are bushes and flowers to make the overall landscaping look nice. The cabin is perfectly designed for the three women to have a great vacation.

Tree House

                                         

Our tree house has many different features. The tree house dimensions are 10 x 10 and has a deck going all around the tree house. The floorplan has a sofa that pulls out in to a bed. It also has a table with chairs and a refrigerator. It has spiral stairs leading up to the deck and also a ladder leading up to the deck.
