Photographer and art historian [John D’Addario](jonnodotcom.tumblr.com) has been capturing images of the new Swoon pieces going up in the Crescent City. Judging by the designs she has big plans for the city, oh right, [she’s planning an art house](http://www.nola.com/arts/index.ssf/2010/11/street%5Fartist%5Fswoon%5Fplans%5Fan%5Fa.html?ref=hyperallergic.com) on Piety Street! And not just any house but a “[towering pixie temple](http://www.neworleansairlift.org/events/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/SWOON%5FNOMA%5FModel%5F01.jpg?ref=hyperallergic.com) with a star-shaped floor plan, a zigzag wrap-around porch and pointy cupola, adorned with assorted dormers and flying filigree.” It sounds impressive.
