John Doak Architecture were awarded the brief for the preservation of 'Minds Eye', the home of renowned Caymanian artist Gladwyn K. "Lassie" Bush in South Sound, Grand Cayman. A fourth generation Caymanian, Bush began painting at the age of 62 after what she describes as a visionary experience. She favours religious themes and makes use of various surfaces in the home - including walls, windows and doors - in the expression of her art. The house was restored under the auspices of the Cayman National Cultural Foundation, which has campaigned to preserve the home as a national treasure for future generations and was opened as a cultural heritage site in 2012.
