Small scale commons is a research project on how abandoned objects, found around the neighbourhood of Moerwijk, can be integrated back into the community and become commons. Through a process of intuitive assembly and reassembly, new objects that I make gain value and character. The hypothesis is that this new value together with the old one, and the relationship that has already been formed with the objects in the past, will transfer to the new objects that are made, and through that, make it possible for them to be established as commons of Moerwijk. The blurry identity of the new objects makes them both stand out and integrate into the neighbourhood. Through observation of the objects in public space, I believe that the nature of the objects and the process of their creation was successful in creating a relationship between the people and the objects in Moerwijk.
