Newspaper Siding: House-Fish Wrap?

March 04, 2017

Dan,

Running late, I turned down a side street on my way to a coffee shop in Cuenca where I was meeting a colleague.

Halfway down the block, I stopped dead in my tracks...

Take a look at this two-story house, totally covered with newspaper.

It is very neatly done, with windows and doors carefully cut—as if it were dining room wallpaper ...

... I don't know the story, and neither did Google. When I find out, I'll send you and update."
