Unit 2&3: Week 2

Exploring the concept of typologies through photography, I focused on capturing different rooms across various homes, each revealing its own unique identity, function, and design language. This process became more than just documentation; it was an intimate study of how spaces reflect the people who inhabit them.

Each room told a story—some meticulously curated, others layered with everyday clutter. The arrangement of furniture, the interplay of light, and the materials used spoke to different lifestyles, cultures, and personal tastes. Some spaces felt warm and lived-in, while others exuded minimalism and restraint. These variations illustrated the typological patterns that exist in residential design, where certain elements—such as a bedroom’s sense of privacy or a kitchen’s functional layout—remain consistent, yet take on distinct forms depending on the context.

Through this exercise, I became more attuned to the subtle interrelationships between space, function, and human behavior. Observing these differences and similarities reinforced the role of typologies in design—how categorization can provide insight into spatial organization and its emotional impact. This experience has deepened my appreciation for interior spaces as evolving narratives, shaped by both structural constraints and personal expression.
