The temporary treehouse installation (only there for one week) was inspired by the Lion Sands Game Reserve accommodation in South Africa.

Virgin Holidays worked with interior designer Hubert Zandberg, who mentioned, ““The biggest challenge with this project was evoking the feeling of a treehouse in the middle of Africa, when we are clearly in the middle of London.”
