Spatial Generator Term: Kotikoti

According to the Māori Dictionary: 
http://www.maoridictionary.co.nz/search?idiom=&phrase=&proverb=&loan=&keywords=kotikoti&search=

1. (verb) (-a) to cut to pieces, dice, divide, lay out boundaries. 
Kātahi ka tīkina he kairūri, māna e rūri, e mapi, e kotikoti kia hia rānei pīhi (MM.TKM 30/6/1857:3). / 

Then send for a surveyor to survey the land, map it and divide it into allotments.

My spatial generator term is Kotikoti. I must design a house that incorporates elements of the above definition. We have been told that we have free range on this project and therefore I can interpret how I portray this within my design.
