During my design research process, I have developed a new concept of home for women with insecurity caused for example by domestic abuse. The concept is defined through an embodied second skin and peripersonal space with certain parameters. By asking myself throughout the process what the parameters could be to define distance in reachable space I have built very diverse models with different kinds of materials, light, thicknesses as well as scales. The main parameters which became relevant for creating the space are materiality, transparency and thickness. Focusing on the needs and interests of the inhabitant, the concept of home can also be defined through security, safety, control, transparency, privacy, identity, and new memories.
