Unusual in-the-round dollhouse

[RockawayRose]

Hi everyone, I'm finally back to dollhousing after a six-month break - we moved to Miami Beach from NYC and it's taken a while to get the apartment set up and deal with reall-life stuff.  I just rehabbed this unusual in-the-round dollhouse for a client who wants to use it for her feng shui workshops to show ideal furniture placement.    If anyone has any guesses as to the name of the dollhouse and manufacturer - there is a pic of the label on it but unfortunately part of the label is missing with that key information.  Here is my blog post with pics:

Happy holidays to all.  Now back to work on the Key West Dollhouse (Hofco Americana)...

I'm so glad to see you here. The house is so unique. I used to have a Rubbermaid spice rack that was similar to this. Too bad I gave it to Goodwill years ago or I would be contemplating a build with it. I hope you are enjoying south Florida. Did you get to go to Art Basel? I wish this front would move out and bring  us some sunny cool air!  Again, I'm so happy to see you here again!

Hi Sable!  The rain is a drag but makes it easier to get things done indoors!  We didn't get to Art Basel - I haven't found enough work yet and the entry fees were a bit pricey.  So I made art instead .

It is a unique house. It was very flimsy to work with and I couldn't quite get the grooves/joints to line up again, but as I've learned, much of dollhousing (and life)? is coming up with creative ways to cover up mistakes!

Welcome home, Arianna!  Are y'all in the Art Deco part of Miami Beach?

Thanks, Holly!   We are in the North Beach area, which has the "MiMO" (Miami Modern) architecture. Our apartment building would be a dollhouse nightmare or challenge, but it's cool-looking and was built in 1960:

Wow, on the water, too. Great location.
