Danish firm Monstrum, founded by Ole B. Nielsen and Christian Jensen, are responsible for some of the most brilliant playscapes I’ve ever seen. From life-size blue whales, giant serpents, and wobbly castles, any one of these would have been my dream come true as a child. See many more examples in their project gallery. 

Wrapped entirely in a cloak of glass, Victoria Tower stands like a lighthouse along the road between downtown Stockholm and the city airport. The 117,6-meter tower is a landmark for the Kista IT office park and for the conference center at the base of the tower and a manifestation of the area’s high-tech profile.

Architects: J. Mayer H. Architects; Location: Mestia, Georgia ‘The project is situated in the heart of the old town of Mestia, next to the newly built city-hall. Its towerlike shape pays homage to the medieval stone towers which are traditional to Mestia’s mountainside region. The facade is comprised of prefabricated textured concrete and large openings which offer a maximum of transparency.’ Link here.

I’ve was never brave enough to climb up a tree as a kid. Trees are awesome enough….from the ground. But the folks at the Soneva Kiri resort managed bySix Senses in Thailand seem to love living the high life as their guests can enjoy fine dining within the comforts of a tree. This five star hotel offers exquisitely decorated guestrooms, relaxing spa treatments and dining in their tree pods.
