Abstract

Over time, technical and symbolic approaches that converged into the domestic space gave way to a number of solutions that were to define the limits of privacy and comfort within the inhabitation. These metrics, which configure the house, have established an interaction between inhabitants and objects that determined the flowing of this space. This text draws upon the technical and formal contents of an industrial design project in the building of a domestic environment. By choosing the house as a privileged habitat, an enunciation of the interactions that took place in it —which are set against a “culture of inhabiting” background— was the preferred direction to be taken.
