<p>Swedish architecture firm Snohetta has built a treetop cabin named The 7TH room for the Treehotel in Northern Sweden. The entire bottom of the treetop cabin is covered with a huge aluminium sheet.<br /><br /><img style="vertical-align: middle; display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="http://www.alcircle.com/uploads/images/2_gtxrz2.jpg" alt="News" width="517" height="226" /><br />The aluminium sheet is printed with black and white image of pine tree, which is used as camouflage. The 7th room is located ten metres up on the pine tree.<br /><br />The firm said, “The boundaries between indoors and outdoors are blurred, making the cabin part of the forest. The 7th Room experience begins when approaching the cabin from the forest. Nearing the base of the tree, the view of the complete cabin gradually recedes as a sixth facade appears."<br /><br />{googleAdsense}<br /><br />The treetop cabin sits 12 stilts and it has two bedrooms with large windows and a skylight which gives views out over Swedish Lapland, the Lule River by day and the aurora borealis by night. <br /><br />The 7th room is designed to bring visitors closer to nature. It is one of the seven treetop cabins covered with an aluminium sheet by Snohetta for the Treehotel.</p>
