“Fairy tales have transfixed readers for thousands of years with the promise of a magical home,” writes University of Arizona scholar Kate Bernheimer. “How many architects, young and old, have been inspired by the hero or heroine, banished from the cottage, lost in the woods, who risks everything to find a forever-space?”
In the online series Fairy Tale Architecture, published in Places Journal, architects have produced works exploring the relationship between the domestic structures of fairy tales and the imaginative realm of architecture.
