Nine houses refused to participate in the study and in some houses, either the male or female respondent refused to participate. The interviews were conducted in the dwelling of the respondents at the appointment time that was decided by the respondent. Thirty eight interviews were applied during weekends and 22 of them were on weekdays. During weekdays, the mostly preferred time by the respondents was between 17:00 and 21:00, and at weekends it was between 11:00 and 15:00. The duration of an interview was approximately 20 minutes and the total time spent in each house was approximately 40 minutes. 38
In addition to in-depth interviews, photographs of the living rooms were taken under the consent of the house owner. The aim of taking photographs was to use them for the analysis of the interior design. Besides, existence of some interior design elements and objects in the living room such as TV set, fire place, personal photographs, art pieces, etc. were noted by the researcher. 3.2.2.
