Christmas 2005
Birmingham and the Black Country
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 elaborateand 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 reviewsof 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.
