CABINABETA is at the same time an inversed quote of Aldo Rossi, aiming to bring the
domestic language into the public realm, inviting people to assume their outdoor common territory as
they do with their indoor private ones. It’s an open border checkpoint that could become a facilitator for
a neighbourhood network and the management of their shared resources and rituals.
It’s the frontier that could look inwards, turning itself into what Robert Frost would call a ‘mending wall’:

(…)
And on a day we meet to walk the line
And set the wall between us once again.
(…)
Oh, just another kind of out-door game,
One on a side. It comes to little more:
There where it is we do not need the wall:
He is all pine and I am apple orchard.
My apple trees will never get across
And eat the cones under his pines, I tell him.
He only says, ‘Good fences make good neighbors’.
Spring is the mischief in me, and I wonder
If I could put a notion in his head:
‘Why do they make good neighbors?
Isn’t it Where there are cows? But here there are no cows.
Before I built a wall I’d ask to know
What I was walling in or walling out,
And to whom I was like to give offense.
Something there is that doesn’t love a wall,
That wants it down’. I could say ‘Elves’ to him.
