Let's pause... and consider home as more than just architecture.‬

This‬ collaborative‬ exploration‬ invites‬ us to‬ pause‬ and‬ reconsider‬ what‬ truly‬ shapes‬ the‬ spaces‬ we‬ inhabit.‬ Rooted‬ in‬ the‬ belief‬ that‬ domesticity‬ is‬ not‬ a‬ static‬ setting‬ for‬ everyday‬ life‬ but‬ a‬ living‬ and evolving‬ experience,‬ the‬ book‬ expands‬ from‬ the‬ scope‬ of‬ the‬ architectural‬ lens.‬ By‬ reintroducing‬ home‬ as‬ something‬ felt,‬ remembered,‬ imagined,‬ and‬ continuously‬ made,‬ this‬ publication‬ tackles‬ the‬ issues‬ of‬ dwelling,‬ belonging‬ and‬ shared‬ living‬ with‬ architects,‬ interior‬ architects,‬ educators,‬ designers,‬ and‬ practitioners‬ whose‬ work‬ touches‬ on‬ care, intimacy, and everyday rituals.‬

Divided‬ into‬ two‬ correlated‬ parts‬ – Reflections‬ and‬ Exercises – the‬ book‬ brings‬ together‬ twenty-one‬ contributes‬ including‬ essays,‬ conversations,‬ and‬ interactive‬ exercises.‬ While‬ Reflections‬ invites‬ you‬ on‬ a‬ journey‬ through‬ alternating‬ perceptions‬ and‬ experiences‬ of‬ domestic‬ life,‬ Exercises‬ opens‬ a‬ space‬ to‬ explore‬ home‬ yourself:‬ not‬ just‬ as‬ a‬ concept,‬ but‬ as a personal, unfolding experience.‬

‭Inherently‬ tied‬ to‬ space.‬ Closely‬ connected‬ to‬ the‬ decorative.‬ A‬ reminder‬ of‬ the‬ presence‬ of‬ hospitality. A shared exercise in practicing domesticity.‬
