About the publicationConceived in volumes

Built to be read now, and kept.

The House Index brings together long-form essays, collecting intelligence, provenance, archives, market context, and the cultural lives of objects.

The digital edition is the first expression of a publication conceived in volumes, with an editorial structure designed to support future collected and print editions without compromising the independence of the writing.
