Introduction

Going Home

Interior design and architecture contain functional and aesthetic elements that communicate layers of meaning. Each home is uniquely comprised of chosen objects and sensory experiences that conjure family, community, and place while signaling relationships with culture and history. “Going Home” considers how we shape and are shaped by domestic spaces. Through reinterpretations of diverse home environments that traverse the interior and exterior, each installation examines the sociopolitical factors that influence home design and its impact on our memories, behaviors, and values.
