The first house I built was made of paper and tape. I took inspiration from my art studio which looks like a log cabin, not only was rolling the paper for the logs fast but it also had quite a good look. Assembling it was also quite easy as I just made a square and continued to layer it. The design is very self explanatory and the house was constructed in about 15 minutes.

The second house is a natural materials tree house. I used sticks, cardboard, fabric and dried artichoke for it. this house was a little fiddly to start with as getting the wire structure to sit while putting the material over it was quite challenging. I used a hot glue gun for structural integrity. I tried to make a thatched roof appearance with the artichoke and this worked really well. I think that this was a simple design that would hold well and it looks unique.

The cardboard house took a long time for me to make as I made each wall separately and cut out all if the windows and doors with a scalpel. I assembled the house before I painted it as you can see. my main idea for the house was for it took look very Tim Burton esc or look like a house would be imagined in Salem. once the house was painted and the railings were added to it I was super happy with how it turned out. I think it looks exactly how I imagined it. For the picture I put some fairy lights into the house through the door which gives it a more livable feel.
