Once in awhile, the stars align and everything is suddenly right on the Internet. That was just the case when our browsers fell upon Atlas of Interiors, a user-uploaded encyclopedia of architecture in dollhouse form. It's universally agreed upon that architecture always looks infinitely more whimsical in miniature—Need proof? Coffee tables, luxurious birdhouses, and wee shelves—and these teeny-tiny handmade creations might be the most whimsical of all. Crafted by the extremely detail-oriented students at the Politecnico di Milano, an Italian technical university, these dainty dollhouses will make you swoon.
