A 5x5x5 covered with 3D printed plates to transform it into something resembling the Ennis House.

The Ennis Cube is a 5x5x5 with extensions using a pattern designed by the architect Frank Lloyd Wright. There is a lot of history behind this design due to its heavy use in Hollywood cinema. I originally came across it in the movie Blade Runner (1982), but it has appeared in well over a dozen different productions since the early 1930's. Frank Lloyd Wright built a house in 1924 that heavily features this unique pattern called the Ennis House. Which of course is where the name for this puzzle comes from.
The puzzle was made using a MFJS Meilong 5x5x5 M with FDM printed extensions. Though there are magnets in this, they can't really be detected during movement due to the added weight simply overpowering them. However they do still help keep things looking aligned and neat.
The stickering of this puzzle was quite the undertaking with a total of 113 per side. There is one edge piece that has as many as 16 stickers on it counting both sides.

The original edge length of the MFJS Meilong 5x5x5: 60 mm
Edge length: 85 mm
