My team and I can build you a custom, luxury treehouse or a custom platform, bridge or other tree project for living, playing, meditating, community gatherings, connecting with nature, or all of the above. We're located in Asheville, NC but may travel for the right project. Please contact me to connect about treehouses, trees, or forests. I look forward to hearing from you!

What we build
Treehouses
Natural, beautiful structures for living, playing, dreaming, meditating, or gathering with friends and family.
Bridges
We can connect you! We build suspension bridges across water, between trees, or between a home and a tree.
Platforms and decks
Climb up to a tree platform to camp, hang out and get away from it all. Or build two and connect them with a graceful bridge.
“Adam and World Treehouses are a dream come true for our family. Our property in the western North Carolina Mountains is our sanctuary, where family and friends come together to make memories. The only thing missing was the treehouse we had talked about for years. Once we connected with Adam and Michael, it was obvious that they were the team for the job. From the beginning – the search for the perfect trees, the design and engineering, the coordination of construction in a very remote location, the communication – every aspect was perfect. And the end result is magical. Thanks so much!!”
“This tree house has grown into something more amazing than I could have imagined. It is a floating work of art, thanks to the vision and talent of the team that created it. Inside, it truly feels like a magical space of sweet solace. I hope this project inspires others to also follow crazy dreams and declare that we are never too old to bring childlike wonder into our lives.”
Our treehouse (an Adam Laufer original) is better than a mailman. Rain, snow, sleet or hail, the house commands. Hurricane tails? No prob. Sometimes it feels like a ship on the ocean. I do ♡♡♡♡♡ the trees and their house!
“Adam and his team listened carefully to our descriptions of what we wanted, and we got exactly what we asked for. We were impressed by their precision and the amount of work they accomplished each day.”
