Occupying the Third Space

S19

We crave comfort and rational surroundings. In an attempt to design a physical representation of an irrational space, we envisioned a wall. A wall creates comfortable surroundings. But can a wall itself be considered comfortable? By entering a space not designed for human interaction nor the comfort of maintaining prolonged conversation, we uncover a third space. The interior of a wall is a space only thought of in terms of enhancing our pleasure on the exterior. As we enter the in-between, we blur and dissociate the boundary in which the function of a wall is programmed to do.
