ABSTRACT
I have called these settings … discrete, but are they really
single or separate? Doesn’t the drift or merge of one into
another turn them into something other than an ensemble
of rooms or settings, into some version of field or land-
scape? How is one to perceive, to understand, ‘rooms
within rooms’; does not the annexation of border ter-
ritories confuse identities by disturbing the integrity or
self-sameness of the building’s plan, precisely because
it integrates it into the surround what one would have
thought was properly and pragmatically excluded from it?
