Tree House Design

Fantasy Tree House Design

You are going to design your fantasy Tree House. The only rules are it has to be school appropriate and it has to be cool. Below are some important floor plan drawing techniques that will help you make a plan that others can understand.

Floor plans are like a map of the building you are designing. Imagine you could take the roof off and look down into the building.

  • NOTE - Your plan can be as unrealistic as you want it to be, reality is not an obsticle!

Start with a big sheet of paper. Bigger is better!


Use a ruler to help keep staight lines straight.


Wall - are usually shown as two solid lines close together.


Doors - Are shown partly open in the direction that they open. Sometimes there is an arrow showing the dirction.


Windows - shown as a solid line.


Furniture - Drawn from above like you are looking down at it.


Labels - it always helps to label things and rooms.


Be creative, be silly, and make it your fantasy hang out place!
