Photograph of a Living Room To conclude, it can be said that the style of the living rooms are not well defined in general, except for the modern ones. The overall concept of the living rooms depends on the dweller’s intentions. As stated by Rechavi (2004), the concept of the living room is defined by the type of objects that are displayed and the activities that are performed in the living rooms. 78
4. CONCLUSION The focus of this study was to examine the activities that are performed in the living room and interior design of the living room. Living room is a stage where different activities take place and dwellers show their identity to the outsiders. The relationship between different activities that are performed in the living room and the intentions for the interior design of the living room was also investigated in this study. Moreover, the group differences in the use and the interior design of the living room were examined. In the first chapter, firstly previous studies that are related to the concept of home were reviewed. Regarding Moore (2000), key influences on home research were examined as “a) cultural, linguistic and historical context; b) philosophical and phenomenological context; and c) psychological context” (p. 207). Home is placed in psychological context and the meaning of the home in terms of its relationship with the identity of its dweller was examined. In the second chapter, previous studies about house and its specific rooms were discussed in relation with the binary oppositions and the functions of rooms in the house for different cultures.

Studies into the use of the living room that revealed the public and private uses were also discussed in this chapter. The idea of living room as a reflection of identity was discussed, and 79
