 The ground floor of the property was dedicated to a shared studio space with the upstairs given over to accommodation.It was also at this time that Gee Vaucher, an artist and skilled gardener, joined the household to become its most long-term resident besides Rimbaud himself.By now the house was inhabited by an ever-changing population of artists, writers, musicians, and filmmakers who, when not working on their own projects, assisted in the running of the house and garden.
