In Many High Streets,

shops are dying on their feet,

but in in cities across Sweden, France, and the Isle of Man, new shops are spring up, all images © AnonyMouse, you may recognize that name, 

we have featured AnonyMouse before, way back in December 2016,

miniature restaurants, record shops, and apothecaries squeeze into ground-level windows on the street next to their human-sized equivalents. The adorable universe is a project from a collective aptly named AnonyMouse, which started crafting the charming scenes in the spring of 2016,

twenty-five installments currently exist across Europe, which largely are inspired by Astrid Lindgren’s and Beatrix Potter’s whimsical tales and movies from Don Bluth and Disney,

"We thought it would bring a bit of joy to pedestrians passing by, but it grew into something slightly bigger, and as such we’ve probably dedicated more time on each project than we originally envisioned. But that’s just part of the fun,” they say,

as its name suggests, the group’s individual identities are unknown, “We like to think that part of the allure of our installations is that they could be done by anyone,” 

"And since we do not have a specific agenda with them our identities are unimportant.” AnonyMouse won’t divulge plans for upcoming installations, but you can follow all of its adventures on Instagram,

 AnonyMouse, a great play on words and neat dioramas too!
