Walls and a roof make a shelter and at best they make a house.
they do not make a home.
A house is a physical container that frames the experiences people have within. These experiences add to the qualities that make up the character of a home. Home is a place where we have an opportunity to be ourselves, to express our individuality and create memories. Home is a place that incubates, creates and replenishes dreams. Home is a haven far from the problems of the world. Home is a place that triggers the imagination.
Home is experienced very differently from person to person and that is the poetry of home…it has potential to allow thoughts to wander and to feel profound emotions. At Stand 47 we hope to share people’s experience of the place contained by its walls and roof and explore how they see and feel the qualities that characterise home in our case study house.
