ABSTRACT
This chapter explores three primary infrastructural typologies: infrastructure as infrastructure, the adaptive reuse of infrastructural interior space for human inhabitation, and the networked interior understood as infrastructure. Infrastructural interiors exist either without architecture at all, within a structure that is not typically considered an inhabitable architecture, or where the functionality of the interior is networked. A reproducible interior element set within an architecture can transcend that architecture and become a networked infrastructural interior condition. In considering infrastructural spaces, what often first comes to mind are those that were not designed for human inhabitation. The interiors of infrastructural spaces, however, typically exist without ornamentation. The infrastructural site might also be one that is part of an infrastructural network designed for human occupation, such as a subway station. Typical subway stations, those that are simply points along a path, have only limited functional differences as infrastructural interior sites.
