A House for Making
Warsha Fan ("art workshop") gathers painting and craft studios around arched thresholds and a courtyard light. Blue-and-gold Iraqi tile carpets the floors, a peacock-feather mandala crowns the entry, and every room keeps the intimacy of a Baghdadi house.
Craft in Every Surface
A stained-glass palm tree climbs the stair wall; murals of the old city wrap the painting studio; niches carved into plaster hold ceramics under warm light. The workshop is itself a catalogue of the crafts it teaches.
