Hello forum,

I built a treehouse on stilts 8 years ago.

Now the tree is gone because it was too big and no longer looked nice. Unfortunately, with that the shade is also gone.
I renovated the playhouse (former treehouse), i.e. new roof, since the trunk no longer goes through it, painted inside, and windows still need to be added, they are missing in the pictures.

Now the playhouse is fully exposed to the sun and today it was 33°C inside despite missing windows and door, while it was 24°C outside. If I install the windows and doors, it quickly reaches 40°C.

Now my question is, what would you do to lower the temperature?

Attached are some photos of the house. The door faces north.

Thanks a lot for tips
Regards 20cents

Anyone have an idea?

I am considering painting the roof white instead of brown.

What do you think about that?

Hello,

At the moment I am only here sporadically and have just now read your question.

Very nice pictures that you have posted here.

The issue with the sunlight is of course a problem.

First the roof, painted with a different color. Whether that helps, I cannot judge.

I rather suspect little.

You could install roller shutters in front of the windows. They keep the heat away.
