The Red Hatch: Wonders Old and Bold | Architecture Adventures | Book One

One red hatch. Ten architectural styles. A very unexpected way home.

When a boy discovers a mysterious red hatch in his attic, he opens it to find a world far beyond his own house. With each new hatch, he travels somewhere different, past towering columns, pointed spires, curling ironwork and great walls of concrete.

But which hatch will lead him home?

The Red Hatch: Wonders Old and Bold introduces children to ten architectural styles through rhyming verse and colourful illustrations. From Classical to Art Deco and Bauhaus, each stop gives young readers something new to notice.

A read-aloud adventure for curious children, with plenty for the grown-ups reading alongside them to discover too.

Explore all ten styles: Classical, Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque, Neoclassical, Art Nouveau, Art Deco, Bauhaus and Brutalism.

The first of three Architecture Adventures, exploring 30 architectural styles across the collection.
