Wanted: Peeking out

Wanted: Peeking out by Curious Expeditions.
The Paper House is literally a house made of paper; over 200 layers of newspaper (and lots varnish) make up the well-insulated walls. As top layers of the walls chip away, bits of old newspaper clippings are visible. Inside, the furniture is made out of paper. The house was built in the early 1922 and still stands firm and sound today. Mr. Elis F. Stenman, a mechanical engineer who designed the machines that make paper clips, began building his Rockport summer home out of paper as a hobby.
