Durham House,
Christchurch Street SW3
Access Status: Pending
This is the only building of it's kind on this street. All the rest on Christchurch St are brick townhouses. It is set back from the road behind the wall shown here and high trees that make it hard to see in. It looks a little run down like someone old and crazy might live there. I have never seen anyone go in or out but there is a Range Rover parked outside. It could belong to another building though.
The architecture hierarchy challenge.
George Bataille claimed that architecture maintains hierarchy. It operates to keep certain people out of certain spaces, and in doing so creates a social structure that is defined by who has access where.
Living in London there are endless beautiful private buildings one can admire daily from the street. Here I will archive my ambitions to gain access to all the many private buildings in London that I lust after daily.
Buildings may be accessed by any means necessary but one must be invited over the threshold. However one can be invited by resident, staff, or estate agent etc.
Building must be restricted access. This may be a private residence or workplace, members club etc.
