EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into a world of whimsy and wonder with this photograph of the Paper House at Pigeon Cove, Massachusetts. Built by the ingenious Mr. Elis F. Stenman, a mechanical engineer, in the 1920s, this unusual abode defies practicality and embraces the bizarre. Elis, who designed the machines that produce paper clips, began constructing his summer home as a hobby, using nothing but newspapers as his building material. The result is a stunning, if impractical, folly that has become a beloved local attraction and a testament to the power of imagination. The interior of the Paper House is a veritable feast for the eyes. Newspapers have been meticulously layered to create walls, a stool, a piano, a bookcase, and an array of decorations. The intricate detailing and craftsmanship are truly awe-inspiring, with each crease and fold adding to the overall effect. Despite its fragile appearance, the Paper House has stood the test of time, a testament to the resilience of this unconventional building material. Visitors to Pigeon Cove are invited to step inside and explore this strange and fascinating exhibit, where the only limit is the bounds of one's imagination. This photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era, a time when practicality took a back seat to creativity and the impossible became possible. The Paper House at Pigeon Cove is a reminder that sometimes, the most unusual things in life are the most worth cherishing.
