About
How we feel about housing is political; grasping the meaning of home is crucial to solve the housing crisis
Housing is not only about bricks and mortar; the home is where our hopes and dreams play out. Housing is at the heart of much of our lives. It is where we rest, eat, relax.
Having a home is essential for our long-term survival, as well as our day-to-day wellbeing. Without a stable place to call home, people tend to experience mental and physical health issues, and often premature death. Housing also has a central role in ideologies about what it means to live a good and dignified life.
“Feeling at Home” grapples with the emotional questions that surround housing, from domestic labour, privacy, ownership and health.
