In reply to Richard W. Thanks for you comments Richard. This is one of the many tensions I have with this project - deciding what constitutes a sign! It deciding what constitutes a sign! Its not always an easy decision and its made more difficult when the name and meaning is not immediately obvious to me. The meaning lies with those who created it and are living in the flat, for me its a mystery to unpick! The ephemerality of the material or the longevity of the sign are not important in the grand scheme of things, its part of the nature of this practice though Im always delighted when signs stay, or when they disappear and reemerge.
Sarah.

Hmm, the pitiful amount of effort in putting up this name and the non-permanence of it make me wonder whether this should even be considered a flat name. Rooms available is far more prominent and permanent 🙂
