Description
John Drinkwater explores the relationship between house architecture and the realm of Faërie. The house he builds for his wife has many different facades, each serving as a customer model. Thus the house’s interior is architected in surprising ways, clearly transgressing between worlds. The liminal nature of their home reflects the tale itself.
