Sažetak
This is a speculative article that assess housing from the perspective of home as a concept that
is understudied in sociological research. By researching spaces of home we don’t leave behind
housing studies or sociology of housing as those are inseparable in housing discourse, but only
once we cross doorstep we are able to discuss the everydayness of dwelling, different choices
and realizations in the home spaces through socio- cultural aspects such as memory, privacy,
emotions, nostalgia, rituals and design. This paper focuses on theoretical conceptualizations of
space and place of home, everyday life and ordinariness of housing. Starting from the assumption
that ways of using our home as well as dwelling practice depend on social and cultural
characteristics, in this paper we suggest defining culture of dwelling as research concept which
focuses on home as socio-cultural practice of housing. Dwelling culture as sociological concept
implies dwelling as everyday practice in which home is formed and realized as intersection of
identity, relations and meaning through material form, symbolic and cultural capital.
