Abstract

The paper examines the issues surrounding the graphical representation of intermediate spaces as singular places in contemporary collective housing, situated at the boundary between public and private. It addresses architectural solutions and their representation from the purely abstract to the iconic. The aim is twofold: to highlight the importance that these spaces have gradually acquired in collective housing and their significance as contemporary identity symbols; and to demonstrate the potential of drawing in their communication and expression. Referencing study cases, we explore and categorise different forms of representation, explaining the resources used to underline their importance. Our analysis proposes a new perspective from which to assess their modes of representation.
