Clément Hébert offers a collection of documents related to the UK-100 house: family photographs, institutional archives, correspondence, models, from 1932 to 2022. UK for United Kingdom, 100 for the number of pieces that make up the kit of these houses ordered by the United Kingdom and that would line up in cities to relocate civilians from the bombed cities of North-West France. This model of temporary housing, a square house, modern and largely forgotten, was born in the United States, as part of the Manhattan project. In idyllic suburbs with deadly charges, engineers housed in houses identical to the UK-100 developed the atomic bomb. It was there that Joan Gilliam wrote this poem for her school newspaper in 1946, which gives its name to the exhibition:
