Homes from America
The 'bungalow' is a generic architectural form which reflects an intercultural exchange with its origins in the history of colonisation. These photographs depict an urban settlement erected in Oxfordshire in the 1950's to accommodate US airmen and their families stationed at an American Air Force base during the Cold War era. 'Flat-packed' bungalows were imported and constructed on site with typically American features: 110 volt electrical system, street signs and fire hydrants - a self-reliant 'mini-city' with complete infrastructure. Purpose-built as temporary housing, what emerges years after its original occupants have left (1994) is a sense of its own obsolescence and transience, mirrored by its current use as short-term rented accommodation. The photographs are a record of the remaining traces of American colonisation of the English countryside.
