My House, My Paradise is a collection of houses in which the 'residents-cum-creators' have devoted all of their ingenuity, energy and determination into constructing what they perceive to be the ideal domestic universe. Each defines a personal microcosm and all are exceptional, whatever the material means used to create them. These are dwellings in which a personal way of looking at the world has bee n relentlessly pursued; most are lifelong undertakings that grew and changed with the creator, and many are distinctly eccentric. They include Ludwig II of Bavaria's Linderhof, the CŽsar Manrique Villa in Lanzarote, Salvador Dali's villa in Spain, Edward James' villa in Mexico, Grandma Prisbrey's Bottle Village, Ian Hamilton Finlay's Little Sparta, Alex Jordan's house on the rock and William Randolph Hearst's Xanadu.
