a giant dollhouse

What would you do if you came across an abandoned, derelict farmhouse and decided to take it over? Turn it into a giant dollhouse, of course!

What would you do if you came across an abandoned, derelict farmhouse and decided to take it over? If you answered:

a) attempt some kind of Grand Designs revamp that has Kevin McCloud clucking about authenticity versus pastiche,

b) start a nefarious crime organisation so you can have a hidden lair, or

c) knock it down and sell the rubble as "Vintage Cement Pre-Mix", then your name is not Heather Benning.

Posed with this question, she instead answered:

d) convert it into a giant dollhouse.

Featuring an open, see-inside wall just like the real (tiny) thing, her work shows off meticulous retro-dolly styling on a giant scale. And just as a side note – we would like to live there, please.
