Borden Partnership is a multi-disciplinary architecture firm specializing in the architecture of the “everyday.” Current explorations into the single-family house, as the fundamental building block of the American suburban landscape, investigate the most pervasive building type deriving this “common” condition, offering the greatest potential for influencing the course of design. Our work over the past five years has looked at the house through: program (Anywhere House series), materiality (Rubber-Banded House), economic and social infrastructures (6 of 20 Propositions for Suburban Living), and currently through experience ([X]perience mechanisms). The collective vision of these design investigations is to provide a new direction within the contemporary constraints and guidelines of both practice and financial. Looking at the contextual, historical, environmental, ethical, experiential, political, programmatic social, technological, typological, and urban processes that govern this landscape with a goal towards reorienting the significance of space and architecture in this most common of realms. This research believes in a firm dedication and movement towards an ultra-modern architecture that redefines through celebration of the inevitable.
