no good spaces

In my perspective, by stripping away the negative connotation in ‘leftover’, it can be translated to ‘no good spaces’. No good spaces that are often overlooked and left unused, can be redefined purposefully.

‘No Good Space’ makes a suitable methodology as it can be represented a noun (a conclusive description of something less desirable as if a being), a verb (no good, less desirable) or an adjective (useless, unwanted or wasted). The ambiguity in it allows the spatial quality to be less suggestive, giving more openness to possibilities.
