Creating a home

There are four universal aspects to creating a home. Without them, the dwelling space will feel bereft of comfort.

1. The home must have sentimental elements.

Sentimental elements differ from society to society. They include photographs of loved ones, collected objects, favorite books or games, gifted items that are wanted (not gifts that aren’t liked), prized mementos, and items passed through the generations.

2. The home requires space for connection.

If the dwelling is occupied by a couple (with or without a family), they need a place for coupling. If the dwelling is occupied by a single person, there needs to be a place for visitors. If the dwelling houses unrelated people, an area to interact with one another is required.

3. The dwelling becomes a home when it feels embracing.

A dwelling can be beautiful or devoid of character. It can be tiny or too large for the inhabitants. The key to feeling like a home is the fulfillment of the desire to feel safe–by all the people who live there. Feelings of safety include feelings of being understood, heard, and appreciated.

4. The home provides specific protection.

The home provides protection from three things: weather changes that aren’t drastic, wars and disruptive events, and landlords who are intrusive.

The line between dwelling and home is narrow.

All four requirements must be fulfilled for a person to feel at home, and each person in a dwelling feels the requirements for himself/herself. The same dwelling can feel like a home for one of the dwellers, but not like a home for the others. A home is a place that gives comfort and security.
