Feral Houses A photo project documenting abandoned and overgrown houses.

I would have expected them to be more symmetrical. Clearly these have been photoshopped.

Whenever I see empty, decaying houses like these I think of how they were once someone's dream home. So sad.

I'd claim the one with the tower for the MechaMansion but I don't think it's big enough.

I would love to make this a feature in my house when I ever get rich. Have the trees push around my house or weave them into the architecture somehow.

These pictures are very peaceful and calm and whimsical.

"Feral houses" I love it. On the drive to Wisconsin the other weekend, Guy & I drove past one and I loved it, wanted it and squeeeeed! Then spent some miles explaining what i found so appealing about it. Now I have a perfect phrase for it! Thank you!

These are wonderful. Also, what deborah said.

Fantastic. There are some lovely photos elsewhere on that site too. I particularly like the 'Other Half' portfolio.

Great pictures, for sure, though I wish the site were a tad more describey.
