House-Home: Not a House, but a Home

Part Three: Bring nature to your home.

Social Change: From Crowd to Individuality

Pandemic conditions that have now completely turned into a lifestyle have become an important matter of debate in every field. In addition, permanent changes have started to appear in our modern life. These changes that occur in our life, triggering social change and heading from crowds to individuality have directly affected the routine. This new order that we have become accustomed to has influenced our daily life and intellectual processes, encouraging us to set out on a journey of individualization. Thus, individualization has become a global phenomenon, combined with the cultural interaction gradually increasing in every field from literature to architecture.

This individualization process has also introduced the phenomenon of social change in a sociocultural sense. In this process whereby we have returned to ourselves, we have also remembered the feeling that nature is also a part of our inner world. Individualization has led to a significant increase in the time that people spend alone. Individuals can do activities inside and outside their homes in the times left from the city life. From another perspective, individuals have turned towards the areas where they can exist separately from the society. This is where our homes have become the most valuable areas. We have started to carefully select the elements that will accompany our life in these areas where we want to reflect difference, individuality, nature, and our own self.

Reflections of Nature at our Home

We consider our homes as the areas we personalize, reflecting our own esthetic tastes. The increase in the time that we spend alone at home makes us further adopt our house and feel the need to personalize it. Our homes say more now. Besides the desire to create more stylish, high-quality and functional living spaces, we have also become more willing to see the reflections of nature in our homes. Communing with nature positively affects human health, not only in terms of motivation, but also physiologically. You can feel the nature more by making small decoration arrangements in your homes.
