A Literary Exploration of Architecture, Folklore, and the Psychology of In-Between Places

There are places where the world quietly shifts: rooms left waiting, stairwells thick with shadow, gardens overtaken by wildness, and forgotten doorways sealed by time. These are thresholds where certainty falters and possibility stirs; where we pause between departure and arrival, memory and forgetting, safety and the unknown.

Liminal Spaces explores the architecture of transition through five richly illustrated chapters examining attics and cloakrooms, ancient corpse roads and desire paths, watchtowers and unfinished bridges, abandoned platforms and forgotten tollbooths, and overgrown gardens reclaimed by nature. Drawing on folklore, cultural anthropology, and the psychology of place, each essay reveals how these in-between spaces shape human consciousness and carry the weight of memory, myth, and transformation.

From the haunted crossroads of European folklore to the eerie beauty of modern abandonment, this volume traces humanity's enduring fascination with thresholds, boundaries, and the uncanny power of places that refuse to be fully one thing or another.
