Description

Today individual rooms came to be used in houses. Dwelling without such rooms is unimaginable now. Individual rooms exist as one form of private rooms, and the way of using them influences family communication seriously. With greater emphasis on individual rooms, members of a family are prevented from communicating with one another. Such a tendency is especially remarkable in children's rooms of our country, and it is pointed out that children tend to be confined to their own rooms. In this study, this fact is considered as “Privatism Phenomenon,” in which, “some living behaviors are excessively brought into a private room in spite of the needlesness of their becoming private.” This phenomenon is mainly caused by a lack of conscious and proper use of either public or private space in a house. So “Privatism Phenomenon” has a fundamental inconsistency of life with individual rooms. And to solve this problem, it is indispensable to consider from the viewpoint of “Housing Culture Theory.” “Privatism Phenomenon” can be proved by “how to use” children's rooms actually. And the cause of the phenomenon becomes clear through study of “how to give” children their own rooms and “how to let them use” them. Then we have results as follows. “Private Phenomenon” is provided by the frequency of bringing the behavior which can be regarded as neither public nor private, such as “study,” “play,” “hobby,” and so on. Once “Privatism Phenomenon” is seen in children, it remains in them with their growth and affects family communication seriously. And such “Privatism Phenomenon” is caused by how parents give children rooms and how they let them use the rooms.
