In the act of enclosing space and making rooms, we make and define
our aspirations and identities. Taking a room by room approach,
this fascinating volume explores how representations of domestic
space have embodied changing spatial configurations and values, and
considers how we see modern individuals in the process of making
themselves 'at home'. Scholars from the US, UK and Australasia
re-visit and re-think interiors by Bonnard, Matisse, Degas and
Vuillard, as well as the great spaces of early modernity; the
drawing room in Rossetti's house, hallways in Hampstead Garden
Suburb, the Paris attic of the Brothers Goncourt;
Schutte-Lihotzky's Frankfurt Kitchen, to explore how interior
making has changed from the Victorian to the modern period. From
the smallest room - the bathroom - to the spacious verandas of
Singapore Deco, Domestic Interiors focuses on modern rooms 'imaged'
and imagined, it builds a distinct body of knowledge around the
interior, interiority, representation and modernity, and creates a
rich resource for students and scholars in art, architecture and
design history.
