Barbara Iweins is a Belgian photographer who spent 4 years photographing and cataloguing every single object in her own house. The site presents the catalog as a sortable database — by color, by room, by use, by sentimental value — and the cumulative effect is a portrait by inventory. Echoes Georges Perec's *Tentative d'épuisement* but applied to a domestic space.
