As was the fashion, they all have full glass fronts and no letterbox provision. A gap was left under doors for the postman to slide mail in.
It would be great to slide in a flat packed object that could be raised inside, just as they do with ships in bottles. Maybe something organic like seeds in a planter. Maybe a boat. Maybe fill the room with a huge balloon. Or maybe file charcoal dust into the space and blow it in.
I never have the time to do these things. But art is ideas and these are mine.
Edit June First 2010: I’m glad this was an unused idea – it seems someone else had the same idea, but they saw it through.
