The Architecture Of Home: Articulating Innate Personalities
The distinction between a house and a home lies not in the architect's style, influenced architectural trends, or architectural expressions of arbitrary design concepts. The distinction lies in the connection between an individual, the objects as extensions of the self, and the architecture that facilitates these relationships. Home designed as the architectural articulation of an individual's personality, and those strengths, weaknesses, beliefs, goals, and needs that are involved begins to define what home is in physical form. Individual personality conveyed through spatial, material, and architectural elements in time suggests that there is not one way to describe what home is or means. This thesis seeks for an understanding of how home can be hypothetically designed 'from' rather than 'for' the unique individual personality.
