They are stories tend to feature a fantasy to its viewers, which often hold a parallelism with or are connected to the reality.

The thesis aims to base on a spatial interpretation of a (a series of/a specific) fairytale, which can lead to the consideration of a ‘dual world’ – the fantasy and reality. It also aims to explore the intimate relationship between the domestic structure of fairytales and the imaginative realm of architecture.
