"Cubicles: A Glimpse into the Hidden Spaces of Everyday Life" Step into a world of hidden spaces, where privacy and functionality intertwine. From the Greenwich Union Cottage Homes in Sidcup, Kent to the Pool Tents depicted in oil on canvas, they have long been an integral part of our lives. In Lisbon, a woman finds solace in her shoe shine booth, creating a temporary haven within its walls. Meanwhile, Dorothea Lange's lens captures the intimate interior of a shower bath unit at an FSA camp in Merrill, Klamath County, Oregon - reminding us that even basic necessities can be transformed into personal sanctuaries. Designed by Sir Christopher Wren himself, the accommodation for Chelsea pensioners showcases how they are provide comfort and seclusion amidst bustling surroundings. Bryan de Grineau's sketches transport us to Fettes College in Edinburgh - revealing how these partitions shape educational environments with their unique charm. Public laundries in St. Marylebone take on new meaning as we witness individuals finding moments of respite behind closed doors while tending to their daily chores. Lavatory doors at Liverpool Abattoir on Stanley Street remind us that even utilitarian spaces can offer brief respites from the outside world. At Downham School in Harlow, Essex - both bath partitions and lavatories serve as private retreats for students seeking moments away from communal life. And let's not forget about telephone exchanges; even there we find cubicles providing much-needed privacy amidst busy City of London streets. Finally, a black-and-white photograph transports us back to Parker Street's L. C. C Lodging-House where cubicles stand as silent witnesses to countless stories untold. These glimpses into various aspects of life reveal that no matter the purpose or location – whether it be residential homes or public facilities – cubicles offer moments of solitude and reflection within our bustling world.
