Strayed Homes: Cultural Histories of the Domestic in Public

English

By (author): Edwina Attlee

Poetic and political, Strayed Homes invites architects, interior designers, and urbanists to think again about common concepts in architecture private, public and home. Whereas most writing about the public/private focusses on urban space, this book focusses on the domestic exploring those overlooked, everyday places where private and intimate activities take place in public. With four chapters set in four small, liminal spaces: the launderette, the greasy spoon, the fire escape, and the sleeper train - the book is part architectural history, part cultural history. It follows a series of allusions and impressions, to explore how films, adverts, books and anecdotes shape experiences of everyday architecture. Making a case for the poetic interpretation of space, the book can be used as a sourcebook for architects, designers, and theorists alike prompting the reader to rethink the emotional state of leaving home, intimacy in public, and lonely dreaming.
