At nighttime, illuminated with lights that reveal the intricate form and texture, the Cherry Tree House truly comes to life, taking on the appearance of a magical home for creatures like fairies high in the treetops. According to the artist, his medium of choice is willow for its many special properties. &#8220;There&#8217;s something about willow that\u2019s evocative. The smell, the texture, the way it moves,&#8221; he says. &#8220;The connection with nature, through coppicing and transferring observations into design, can be a humbling experience, and a physical one too.&#8221; (<a style=\"font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; color: #339966;\" title=\"Tom Hare's Tree House\" href=\"http:\/\/www.mymodernmet.com\/profiles\/blogs\/tom-hare-cherry-tree-house?context=tag-architecture\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">source<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>[easy-share buttons=&#8221;facebook,twitter,linkedin,mail&#8221; counters=0 native=&#8221;no&#8221; image=https:\/\/live-ehc-english-ucsb-edu-v01.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/yusuke-asai-waf-1.jpg url=https:\/\/live-ehc-english-ucsb-edu-v01.pantheonsite.io\/?p=7538 facebook_text=Share twitter_text=Tweet\u00a0linkedin_text=Link text=&#8221;Tom Hare&#8217;s Tree House&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><\/div> <div  style='height:10px' class='hr hr-invisible   avia-builder-el-4  el_after_av_one_third  el_before_av_two_third '><span class='hr-inner ' ><span class='hr-inner-style'><\/span><\/span><\/div> <div class=\"flex_column av_two_third  flex_column_div first  avia-builder-el-5  el_after_av_hr  el_before_av_one_third  \" ><p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7539\" src=\"https:\/\/live-ehc-english-ucsb-edu-v01.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/tomhare3edit.jpg\" alt=\"tomhare3edit\" width=\"675\" height=\"449\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ehc.english.ucsb.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/tomhare3edit.jpg 675w, https:\/\/ehc.english.ucsb.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/tomhare3edit-120x80.jpg 120w, https:\/\/ehc.english.ucsb.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/tomhare3edit-450x299.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 675px) 100vw, 675px\" \/><\/p><\/div> <div class=\"flex_column av_one_third  flex_column_div   avia-builder-el-6  el_after_av_two_third  avia-builder-el-last  \" ><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UK-based artist Tom Hare created the Cherry Tree House, a large-scale structure woven from thin boughs of wood into a beautifully spherical shape.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":7540,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[67],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7538","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-architecture"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ehc.english.ucsb.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7538","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ehc.english.ucsb.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ehc.english.ucsb.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ehc.english.ucsb.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/11"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ehc.english.ucsb.edu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=7538"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/ehc.english.ucsb.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7538\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":18357,"href":"https:\/\/ehc.english.ucsb.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7538\/revisions\/18357"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ehc.english.ucsb.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/7540"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ehc.english.ucsb.edu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=7538"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ehc.english.ucsb.edu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=7538"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ehc.english.ucsb.edu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=7538"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
