Poché is the space nestled between two faces of a wall—a gap that holds its secrets, shrouded in mystery. Architects often render it in black, a void, leaving whatever lies inside unseen and unknown. But what if something stirs there, hidden from sight? When attention drifts away, what might emerge within? Could it be flowers in bloom, a dense forest, a murky swamp—or something entirely unexpected? It’s with the idea of the unseen, inviting contemplation of the hidden worlds that may exist in spaces we overlook, those in-between realms that lie just beyond perception.
