Wattle and Daub
Long before colourful cottages lined the roads, Cayman’s earliest homes were built with resourcefulness and resilience.
Inspired by the traditional wattle and daub houses of the 1700s, this illustration honours the simple structures that provided shelter for the island’s first settlers. Constructed using locally available materials, these homes represent the beginning of Cayman’s architectural story and the ingenuity of the people who built them.
Drawn in pen and pencil, Wattle and Daub is part of a series celebrating the foundations of Cayman heritage and the quiet beauty found in its earliest forms of island life.
