It was a very simple shedworking space built in 1952 for his wife Yvonne with two beds, a small desk, lavatory and washing facilities (they ate in the little café right next door). Built over six months using rough pine boards for the exterior and plywood and oak inside, apparently his first plan was to use aluminium cladding.
