Seven Houses
Seven residential projects are shown as plaster models at 1:50, lit from directly above and captioned in two lines. Stripped of colour, figures and photographs, the group invites a comparison that is purely sectional. The hall lights are off; each model carries its own midday shadow.

Note
We asked for a dark room and got one, which decided the whole show. Visitors spent longer at the models than we expected and asked about stairs more than facades. Four of the seven models are now in the studio, still on their plinths.
