Façade & Garden Totems
Architecture becomes sculpture: bottle-tops, crockery, mirrors and dolls fuse into dense mosaics and vertical ‘totems’.Found materials are treated like a painter’s palette—colour fields and repeating motifs guide your eye across the surfaces.
📍 Front exterior and small garden
Diary Rooms
Text panels and hand-lettered plaques act as a personal diary, turning memory and grief into part of the installation.Words are used as materials—phrases and names are embedded into the décor like tiles.
📍 Ground-floor interiors
Assemblage Altars
Shrine-like clusters mix toys, photographs and ornaments into intimate memorials.Everyday bric-à-brac is re-coded as relic; the display language nods to folk devotional traditions.
📍 Stairwell and room corners
Pattern & Textile Eye
Wright’s background in textiles informs the rhythm of pattern, edging and colour blocking across rooms.Borders and trims behave like fabric selvedges, containing riotous surfaces inside crisp frames.
📍 Throughout—surfaces and trims

🤓 Fun Facts
The house is conceived as a single artwork (a ‘visionary environment’): the architectural shell and the collection are inseparable.
Materials are overwhelmingly reclaimed—broken ceramics, plastic toys, dentures, bottle caps, mirrors—chosen for colour, texture and biography rather than monetary value.
Text is integral to the collection: hand-lettered plaques and ‘memory boards’ record people, places and dates, so writing functions as an exhibit medium, not just a label.
