The House is the one room that is not small. A building is taken over, fitted out and run for five days as a working house: tables, rooms, workshops, film, and a register of 1,111 people moving through it. Everything inside it is designed and built by Circolo, then removed.

The house is judged on what was still true in the register ninety days after it was taken down.

Members, the institutions we hold mandates with, and the people those two groups bring by name.
