" At Blue Skies Village in Palm Springs, Calif., a single-wide trailer has been transformed into a miniature Temple of Luxor complete with hieroglyphs and a wall painting of a looming Tut-like figure.
Next door, a Japanese-style torii gate frames a Buddha and lacquer-red upswept roof. In Winchester, Va., trellises, a white picket fence and an iron plaque of a horse and buggy above the door suggest a distinctly colonial redesign." (Rogers PD, wp_98.06.25)
