Guerrilla architecture

Guerrilla architecture is the hacking of existing buildings, often old, disused or distressed, adapted to a new function. Guerrilla architecture is both a social and political movement.

Buildings, spaces, attachments and interventions are often characterised by their parasitic or alien nature.
