We all know that the tiniest nooks an crannies can often be the most exciting places to hide and where the best adventures begin.

I often find my son in the space below the stairs, under the bed, crouching in his wardrobe. All the while whispering to his imaginary band of brothers lost in his hiding spot and convinced he is invisible to everyone but them.

Cubby houses are king even if they are transient lean-to’s made from blankets and cushions, they still hold a world full of wonder for their occupants.
Converting a cupboard into a bonafide dream room, creating a perfect, private hideaway to dream, invent and escape. Now thats what I call a cubby house.
