The concept of private ownership has been under scrutiny in recent years. This turn in the concept of property attests to the fact that architecture is an active participant in the construction of the city, suburbs, the rural, and the natural, and is an agent in realizing a political and cultural project in the environment we share. These projects focus on sharing and its impacts on architecture. Contrary to a romantic notion of the olden days, today’s shared resources cause conflicts. From border walls, wars over precious metals and refugee camps, to communes, gated communities and micro-housing, they call to question who owns which resource, who decides and what the consequences may be for our environment, kin, and architecture.
