Dolls House
(35)
I think the kitchen is the most fun part of projects such as this - they contain lots of stuff!
As I stated before, the kitchen in houses such as this was usually semi-subterranean, which is why there are no windows. The ceiling would usually be vaulted (arched) to help it support the weight of the house above. That doesn't work in a dolls house, so I have arched the doorways and recesses to give the impression of vaulting.
Down here of course, the ceilings are lower and the fancy light-shades, wall-paper and cornices have all gone. Everything is strictly functional.
