History 1999-2019
Twenty years ago, Mark Turpin unveiled Chateau du Bois and launched a new series of one-of-a-kind miniature houses and structures. Mark expanded his initial plans for houses and mansions in miniature to include miniature art museums, shops, orangeries, conservatories and room settings. Mark's work is now displayed in private collections and exhibited in museums.
Over the past twenty years we have welcomed to this site miniature collectors and enthusiasts from more than seventy countries. The volume of work contained herein demonstrates Mark's imaginative and innovative designs and craftsmanship.
Revisit Wadsworth Manor and enjoy a home tour of all fourteen rooms wonderfully decorated and furnished by the owner. Additional decorated houses and rooms can be found in our Furnished Home Tour.

Creating architectural miniatures opens a world of possibilities, unlimited by style or period.
Since 1999, Mark has produced one-of-a-kind, architecturally themed structures and spaces for collectors and miniaturists to furnish according to their dreams.
Visit the gallery pages: Classical, Traditional, and Contemporary, along with our Room Settings, then enjoy touring some of the houses and rooms as decorated and furnished by Collectors in our Furnished Home Tour. Check the latest production updates on our News page.
The doors are open at our brand new modern house – Palisades – available now in our Contemporary Gallery.
Rather than replicating existing houses, we offer unique new designs and adaptations of various styles. Available scales are 1:12 and 1:24.
For Collectors: Architectural Miniatures give collectors of all ages a chance to furnish exciting new houses or rooms of their own – and then redecorate or rearrange the furniture on a whim.
DIY: For do-it-yourselfers, we offer completed structures with finished or unfinished exteriors and unfinished interiors, ready to decorate and furnish.
