Range of 20 cute houses to be sold at auction in London

They look like the cutest houses imaginable and they are unlikely to cost the earth despite being designed by some of the world's leading architects and designers.
A range of 20 unique dolls houses are being sold in London next month in aid of a children's charity as part of a project inspired by the dolls house that Edwin Lutyens designed for the British Empire Exhibition in 1922.

It has been organised by property developers the Cathedral Group and the miniature houses by world famous architects and designers including Grayson Perry and Chris Ofili will be auctioned at Bonhams on 11 November in London in aid of disabled children's charity KIDS.

Participating architects and designers include Adjaye Associates, Allford Hall Monaghan Morris, AMODELS, Coffey Architecture, Dexter Moren, DRDH Architects, dRMM, Duggan Morris Architects, FAT Architecture, Glenn Howells Architects, Guy Hollaway Architects, HLM Architects, James Ramsey RAAD Studio with Lara Apponyi, Lifschutz Davidson Sandilands, mae, Make Architects, Morag Myerscough & Luke Morgan, Shedkm, Studio Egret West and Zaha Hadid Architects.

In the same spirit as the Edwin Lutyens dolls' house, the architects and designers have been encouraged to collaborate with their own artists, designers and furniture makers. Among others, FAT has worked with Grayson Perry, David Adjaye with Chris Ofili, Guy Hollaway with Hemingway Design and Studio Egret West with Andrew Logan.

Each dolls house, which fits on a 750 millimetre by 750 millimetre plinth, also includes a unique feature to make life easier for a child with a disability.

KIDS is a UK charity supporting disabled children, young people and their families. They run home learning programmes, specialist nurseries and crиches, short break programmes for disabled children and a series of inclusive adventure playgrounds. They offer a wide variety of services to parents of children with disabilities and programmes for siblings of disabled children and young carers.

Bids can be made on line via the www.adollshouse.co.uk website until 12pm on Monday 11 November, 2013, and after that at the evening auction.

How it works

Depending upon which program you choose, up to 100% of your monthly rent will be credited toward the purchase of your new home. It is time to start putting your hard earned money towards something that you will own. Lending standards have really tightened over the past few years. The traditional ways of buying a home are extremely difficult. It usually takes a large down payment (usually between 10-20%), spotless credit, and proof of income for the past two years to buy a home. For most people this is not attainable. The traditional ways of buying property are a thing of the past. There are no banks and no qualifying with our program. Our properties do not stay on the market for that long. Sign up for updates on available properties to be the first to hear about them. To learn more how the rent to own program works visit our website, give as a call or e-mail us.
