Importance Of Family Life Space

  • The concept of life space defines the idea of territoriality
  • Territory is the proportion of the universe that is one’s own, that engenders feelings of belonging, safety and comfortable familiarity.
  • To a family, life space is a shelter that protects and encourages the fullest development of each individual’s potentiality.
  • According to the demands of the family members, life spaces can be widely divergent in character.
  • A family life space may be large or small house that is temporary or permanent, located on the ground level, above it, or below it; might be a studio apartment, a mansion, a house boat, a dormitory, a condominium, a mobile home, a camp house, or even a tent.
  • But in spite of the limitless alternatives, certain influences do guide us in the creation of a life space.
