| Description | The issue of spatial and temporal organization of the living environments is one of the most dominant motives in the solo-living narratives. The fluidity and scattered nature of the boundaries relates to the new forms of organization of work either at work places, semi-public spaces or in home. In addition, new freedom of time and space organization brings about the burden of self-discipline. It presupposes the internalization of the rules and their application in the self-regulatory mechanisms and routines. The question is, how has been the temporal and spatial boundary between work and non/work negotiated; how are these two realms produced and reproduced on the everyday basis by the solo-living people? How is their dynamic relation materialized in their living environments? And last but not least, how the presence of paid work (back) in the private zone influences the xperience of home? |
