    This house is beautiful and full of warmth - like living in a scrapbook of good memories. What a great place to have a party or just hang out. I also love listening to him talk.

    Never seen such kind of a treehouse before taking the trunk of the tree as the centrepiece. I love it.

    That has got to be one of the coolest places I've ever seen, it has character and ambiance of a place where you just want to hang out. The imagination of childhood, the necessities of adulthood, bbq cooker and bar, with pictures and collectibles that tell a story. I can only imagine the feeling of that place when there is a party going on inside.

    I also like that his vest and jeans look like upcycled old jeans. He matches his treehouse. I'd love to be at a party in his treehouse. Such a warm and loving vibe to it.

    How beautiful it looks and so peaceful. It reminds me of a place in ones childhood where you would go with your friends to have a picnic and play games like hide and seek or ring around the rosie. You could sit there at night and just look at the stars and talk to God. That would never get old.What a wonderful place.

    What a beautiful place he's created! I'd love to hang out in there. It has that cool cabin feel that you can't help but fall in love with.

    Buddy Melvin ~ You've created, with love and remembrance and joy, a beautiful place. Trees have deep roots. So do you. I want to visit. Please, stay safe. Carry on. ~ Jessan

    Buddy Melvin's poignant description of why he created his treehouse is inspiring. I've written about many contemporary Black artists coming from a well of Black traditions, using materials around them, making them into something else--often referred to by the makers as "makin' somethin' outta nothin'."

    Thank you for showing us this. It's wonderful to see what he has made and built up over the years. It's great to see his attitude reflected in a physical construction like this!.

    Absolutely genius! I'm in awe and love the idea of upcycling. New stuff falls apart. Thanks for sharing, so lovely to see.

    Please don't ruin this for me.. Let me have this peace before I face the world again.. I need this peace.. And so do you. You will know the feeling when it hits you; a wonder in a world that you don't want to destroy. I appreciate the world through this man's eyes.

    This tree house grew organically from his dreams. How cool. // At 4:06 there are a few frames of a teddy bear on a bed. Would that be Gertrud's Bear from Ellis Island?

    Beautiful place I love everything about it (I wish it were mine!)...however, that is not a tree-house...it's a house on stilts with a tree growing thru it--a very big difference

    Is it really a treehouse if it's sitting on the floor? 😅

    • @Mentocthemindtaker

      It's better than calling it "The house with the tree in it". So yes, I'd say it's a treehouse, from a certain point of view.
