77 House for a Couple

May be part of The Family (75), House Cluster (37).

Conflict

In a small household shared by two, the most important problem which arises is the possibility that each may have to little opportunity for solitude or privacy.

Resolution

Conceive a house for a couple as being made up of two kinds of places- a shared couple's realm and individual private worlds. Imagine the shared realm as half-public and half-intimate; and the private worlds as entirely individual and private.
