Party Wall Common Synopsis

Party Wall Common confronts the concept of ownership, as well as the challenges pertaining to our disconnection from one another and our environment, by exploring the legal and spatial conversion of party walls typical of row house typology into a common ground. In such a common ground, neither the public nor the private "governs"; rather, a multitude of interactions generated by a collective body embracing a field of changing configurations, by which the duality of "I" versus "THEY" is permeated by a third entity: the "WE".

The notion of "we" is understood here as the legal and spatial materialisation of a common ground unfolding via a party wall, in which a collective embraces a generative form of ownership that embraces social equity and care for one another, while sharing both material and immaterial resources by means of inhabiting Party Wall Common.
