The Mediated Home in the Global Village

GARY GUMPERT

SUSAN J. DRUCKER

Every media development alters the availability and nature of traditional private and public places. The 20th century has witnessed the transformation of the home from sanctuary to communication hub. Such changes have altered the way in which domestic space is experienced. The integration of media technologies requires a reorganization of the home as social space. Communication technologies have reshaped the uses of domestic space and redefined the division of home and the workplace. The experience of home environments is no longer solely shaped by the physical environment but by the constantly expanding nonphysical world of connection. This article superimposes a communication analysis of domestic design and proposes integrating media technology and the changing communication landscape into any analysis of space in the home environment.
