Cardboard Dwellings

Intricate detail gives these paper artworks a realistic feel.

INTERIOR DESIGN CONSULTANT Wilfred Cheah's day job is to create beautiful homes. In his free time, he still does the same, but a different kind.

Mr Cheah, 55, turns recycled cardboard into art - incredibly realistic paper renditions of houses including a Peranakan shophouse or a block of HDB flats. It's been his hobby for years, but he stopped when he ran out of display space in his own home.

He's back at it again, and this time he accepts commissions as well.
