Tubular glass house by Aibek Almassov could be built around a full-grown tree

一棵成熟的冷杉树将被封闭在由哈萨克建筑师Aibek Almassov设计的概念管状玻璃房子的中心，这终将成为现实，潜在投资者也已浮出水面。

A mature fir tree would be enclosed at the centre of this conceptual tubular glass house by Kazakh architect Aibek Almassov, which may finally become a reality now that potential investors have been found .

“房子中的树”被A Masow建筑事务所的Almassov设计出来，是一个倒置的树屋，目的是使人们从“闷热的混凝土”的城市生活中逃脱出来。

它的特点是一个完整的玻璃和圆柱形结构，可以360度地观赏森林景观。

Tree in the House is designed by Almassov of A Masow Architects as an inverted treehouse, intended to provide an escape from the "sweltering concrete boxes" of city life.
It features a completely glazed and cylindrical structure to give 360-degree-views of a forest setting.

当这个项目最早在2013年开始设计时是有投资者支持的，但他们随后又退出，似乎这个项目永远不可能被完成。

但玻璃和太阳能面板制造商现在充满兴趣，据Almassov说，所以建设迫在眉睫。

An investor was initially secured when the project was first designed in 2013, but they subsequently pulled out and it seemed the project would never be completed.
But a glass and solar panel manufacturer is now interested, according to Almassov, so construction could be imminent.

“项目的建立并没有那么困难，”他告诉Dezeen，“问题是要找到投资者。”

“目前，我们已经找到了两家投资者，”他补充说。“其中一家拥有一个生产透明太阳能板的玻璃厂。他对这个项目很感兴趣，所以我们现在正和他谈判。”

"Really it's not so difficult to build it," he told Dezeen, "the problem was to find an investor."
"At the moment, we have found two of the investors," he added. "One of them has owns a factory for the production of glass with transparent solar panels. He is interested in this project so we are negotiating right now with him."

效果图展示了这个管状建筑位于一片林中空地上，它的最顶层超过了树冠——尽管这个项目没有被绑定到任何特殊的位置上。

Renderings show the tubular building residing in a woodland clearing with its uppermost storeys rising above the tree canopy – although the project is not bound to any particular location.

“这个项目的主要目的是提供一种替代城市生活喧嚣的方式，”建筑师说，“我们想把现代工业设计的能力和自然的财富、美丽结合起来。”

"The main purpose of this project is to offer an alternative to the bustle of city life," said the architect. "We wanted to combine the capabilities of modern industrial design and the natural wealth and beauty."

“更重要的是，它不会对环境造成危害，”他补充说。“这是一个从闷热的混凝土中逃离的机会，去感受与自然的统一。”

"And more importantly it doesn't harm to environment," he added. "This is an opportunity to escape from the sweltering concrete boxes and feel the present unity with nature."

光滑的墙壁和天花板将显示出四个狭窄的环形楼层，以及一个环绕树干螺旋式上升的白色楼梯。

The glazed walls and ceiling will reveal four narrow ring-shaped floors, as well as a spiralling white staircase that wraps around the trunk of the tree.

玻璃与木质的栏杆环绕每层的中庭，以免挡住风景。

“在这个不同寻常的家中爬楼梯，可以起到心灵净化、启蒙以及环境协调的效果，”Almassov说。

Glazed balustrades with wooden railings will surround the atrium on each level so as not to block the views.
Climbing the stairs [in this] unusual house can be compared with the stages of spiritual purification, enlightenment, harmonising with the environment," said Almassov.

图像显示的树延伸向外部的琉璃屋顶和墙壁上，只占据最小的占地空间。

Images show the boughs of the tree extending outwards towards the glazed walls and roof, encroaching on the minimal floor space.

整个玻璃淋浴间反映出建筑物的管状形式，而概念住宅的其他部分被独立家具装饰起来，它们顺应着弯曲的墙壁肌理。

An entirely glass shower cubicle mirrors the tubular form of the building, while other parts of the conceptual residence are seen dressed with free-standing furniture that follows the curving walls.

根据A. Masow建筑事务所先前创建的一组逼真的效果图照片中的具体住宅效果，平衡了哈萨克斯坦的山地环境。类似“房子里的树”项目，ImagineHouse也被设计成隔离城市噪音的独立住宅。

Almaty-based A.Masow Architects previously created a set of photo-realistic renderings of a concrete house that balances over a hillside in Kazakhstan. Like Tree in the House, ImagineHouse was also designed to isolate its residents from the noise of the city.
