a festive house
HoHoHo

Over a number of cold, dark winters we had begun to notice the growing trend for people to decorate and illuminate their houses with festive lights, inflatables and fake snow. The displays were becoming ever more elaborate and inventive and we thought that it was tine to celebrate the people who put so much effort into lighting up winter. So, in collaboration with THEpUBLIC, we created www.hohoho.org.uk. The website contained images and reviews of decorated homes throughout Birmingham, Sandwell and The Black Country. It contained tours to help people find the best displays in a particular area, together with background stories and photographic tips.

Finances meant that we were not able to scour the streets looking for the brightest and best in Winter 2005. In 2006 THEpUBLIC was placed in receivership and their server has gone down, now all that exists of the project are a series of screengrabs. When things calm down in the Stan's Cafe office we put these up here for you.
