Publications

Three we
put out.

Not a catalogue. One book about a neighbourhood we worked in for years, one guide written to be carried into a shop, and one piece of research.

The publications

Nothing is behind a form, and nothing asks who you are.

Book · 2015

Khirki Extension, Delhi

A record of one Delhi neighbourhood — its water, its waste, its building, and the people who explained all three to us. Made over the years Swechha worked there, and printed rather than posted because the people in it wanted something they could hold.
