interiordwelling

Interiordwelling is a term used in design discourse to describe the intentional creation and arrangement of interior spaces for human habitation. It encompasses principles from interior design, architectural planning, and environmental psychology to enhance daily living within a built environment.

Scope includes residential interiors such as houses, apartments, and other living units, as well as temporary or adaptive spaces. It emphasizes layout, furniture arrangement, storage efficiency, circulation, lighting, acoustics, thermal comfort, and durable, safe materials. Cultural, climatic, and personal preferences influence choices and aesthetics.

Key considerations include accessibility for mobility needs, flexibility to accommodate changing routines, sustainability through materials and energy use, and a sense of place that reflects user identity. Designers may use space-saving strategies in small dwellings, or open-plan concepts in larger homes, balancing privacy and sociability.

Methods and tools include space planning, mood boards, material palettes, CAD or 3D modeling, daylight analysis, and ergonomics. The concept often integrates technology and smart-home features to support daily routines without compromising comfort.

Interiordwelling is related to but distinct from broader architectural design and from consumer trends in furniture and decor. It is a dynamic field that responds to housing stock, urban density, and evolving ideas about well-being, sustainability, and inclusivity in living spaces.
