Privacy

The home enables us to have some privacy from the outside world with walls that protect us from physical, visual and auditory interference. They are built and furnished in a manner that will provide people living in it some sort of flexibility between total isolation from and total exposure to the outside world.

Each individual occupies an area called "bubble" or personal space. This personal space may be big or small depending on individual needs and circumstances such as: personality, age and cultural background. Any interference into one's invisible space may be viewed as a threat to one's right for privacy.
