This was my first spirit house. It was commissioned by Rusty L. As Noi had designed and built and decorated his country house in the Moroccan style, it was appropriate that he had a Moroccan style Spirit House.
A Spirit House is believed by Thais to attract the spirits that would otherwise take up residence in your own home. The Spirit House should be attractive to the spirits and also well maintained.
This house has a wheel turned dome but is otherwise slab built. The spires are delicate but other than that, this spirit house should last centuries.
I really enjoyed the challenge of building this but love the idea of combining the two cultures like this. More combinations planned.
