This thesis challenges the limits of ‘queer space’ by shifting focus to the act of queering space—a continuous, fluid, and relational process. Through emotional mapping, frictional encounters, and embodied design, it resists normativity and reclaims shared architecture as a site of queer agency, care, and collective transformation.
