"Cubicle: A Journey Through Time and Spaces" Step into the past and explore the diverse uses of cubicles throughout history. From a study room at Rugby School in 1967 to oil on canvas depicting pool tents, these enclosed spaces have played various roles. During World War II, even Christmas greetings were exchanged through cubicles, as seen in a heartwarming card from that era. Moving forward to Rowton House in London's Newington Butts, we witness how cubicles provided shelter and privacy for those seeking temporary accommodation. In Senate House & Library Middlesex Library South, cubicles transformed into havens for knowledge seekers. The entrance with its box office and security gate led visitors to an enchanting world of literature within. Venturing further south to Barcelona's Sagrada Familia Basilica by Antoni Gaudi, we discover intricate cubicle-like structures adorning this UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site. These architectural wonders stand tall as testaments to human creativity. Not all encounters within they are serene; Johnny found himself assaulting Lawyer Gripe-all after being cheated out of 100 pounds in his office. This handcoloured engraving captures the intensity of their confrontation during this historical moment. Cubicles also served practical purposes like providing shower bath units at FSA camps in Oregon during the Great Depression. Dorothea Lange's photograph immortalizes one such interior where people sought solace amidst challenging times. The concept of mixed bathing gained popularity in London during the early 20th century, as depicted in an illustration from The Graphic newspaper. Cubicle partitions ensured modesty while enjoying communal bathing experiences. Public laundries became bustling hubs within St. Marylebone, London around 1900 – each individual working diligently within their own private cubicle space to clean clothes for others. Bramley Baths in Leeds offered private cubicles alongside waiting areas where individuals could relax before taking a dip or enjoying a leisurely swim.
