Robson Cezar’s Whitechapel Houses, 2022
Spitalfields artist Robson Cezar has been collecting wooden fruit crates in Whitechapel Market on the way to his studio in Bow again, and making them into little wooden houses.
Each one is a day’s work for Robson and many are recognisable as inspired by buildings around the East End. Photographer Sarah Ainslie visited him in his studio this week to document his creations. Every one is different and each comes with an LED light and battery.
We are selling them on a first-come-first-served basis, so if you would like one please email spitalfieldslife@gmail.com giving your first, second and third choice, and we will supply payment details. We can only post these within the United Kingdom.
ALL ROBSON’S HOUSES ARE SOLD BUT HE WILL MAKE YOU ONE TO ORDER IF YOU DROP US A LINE!
These houses are sculptures not toys and we do not recommend them for children under the age of twelve.

Robson Cezar’s wooden houses are wonderful, especially now in Advent. In combination with my little smoking man from the Erzgebirge, a beautiful atmosphere is achieved.
