In Support of Contemporary Identity: The Modern Palestinian Home
Many Palestinians today live in places that barely satisfy their basic needs rather than dynamic places that convey cultural meanings and respond to the various forces that define the Palestinian context. This chapter explores the forces that shape the home, and communicated the powerful role of the home as a living object that conveys meanings, regulates interactions, adapts to life patterns, and supports group identity. It also reveals how cultural and historical forces can inform the design process, and create thriving and living entities that frame the home environment. A model for translation of these design strategies into the built environment is presented in the chapter for a contemporary interior of a Palestinian house – one that reinterprets the past in a modern way while responding to the current needs of the community and restoring the occupants ’ identity and sense of place.
