“…Within this study of public interiority, we can follow frameworks already established by others-form-based urban interiorities (Poot, de Vos, & van Acker, 2019), programmatically driven urban spaces (Whyte, 2007), and psychological urbanisms (Sennett, 2016). There are also outliers, such as Sean Lally's atmospheric architectures, that may borrow from both formal and psychological interiorities (Lally, 2014).…”

This essay explores the intersection between interiority, urbanism, and the human perception. I view interiority as a condition of the senses rather than an indoor place. Revelations of interiority can be discovered within urban realm, in public spaces, and in intimate interior conditions. I am especially interested in “public interiority” or these cases of interiority that can be found in exterior urban places. Understanding interiority as a perceived condition grounds the built environment in phenomenology, varied human experiences, and everyday conditions. Herein, I begin with an ontology of interiority, which focuses on various ways of perceiving the nature of things – phenomenology, structuralism and object-oriented-ontology (OOO). From there, I will analyze a taxonomy of public interiorities including various strains of form-based, programmatic, atmospheric, and psychological public interiorities. Using real-world examples from my previous research in Bucharest, Romania, New York and [location hidden] as well as well-established examples in art and design, I will then analyze various urban experiences of interiority and the way built conditions shape experience. In this way, I will bring the interior to the city.

“…Against the backdrop of the micro-urban commons, an interstitial urban interiority can be traced, playing a fortuitously unifying role in daily activities. Urban interiority transposes private interior patterns into urban settings (Poot et al, 2018). Intertwining one’s personal habits and rituals with the city’s rhythms and structures consummates an interior/exterior integration that builds a unique user agency.…”

Understanding the Micro-Urban Commons as a Shared Public Interior Framework

The micro-urban commons are understood as liminal spaces within the urban fabric. They are nominal yet integral to the city’s function and identity. Across their shared platforms, the micro-urban commons fundamentally possess the potential for hosting communal interactions and transactions within the built environment that seed nonconfrontational approaches to stereotypes and prejudices. Activated by employing urban interior approaches, this essay highlights the role such spaces play in nurturing empathetic exchanges, increasing an understanding of our differences and inherent similarities. Moreover, it calls for rethinking urban design legacies that have often neglected interstitial entities that interlace the social fabric and enable everyday encounters.

“…This paper expands the understanding of domesticity through women's spatial practices in Kampung Kauman as a discourse on interiority in the context of the urban environment. The idea of interiority becomes relevant to address the connectivity between the domestic and the public that can lead to dynamic relationships and present new meanings of space (Peterson, 2006;Poot et al, 2018). The gender revolution has significantly contributed to radically changing concept of domesticity (Martella & Enia, 2021).…”

The spatial practice of women in Kampung Kauman is a concrete manifestation of the active agents of spatial production in everyday life, which uses housing to support their economic, social, and cultural activities. This paper aims to expand the idea of women-led domestic territory using the lens of interiority, highlighting women's practices that connect and expand their space in the inner space of the dwelling and beyond. This research was conducted by mapping the everyday practices of women in Kampung Kauman to reveal various spatial settings in space. This paper argues that women's practice can broaden the understanding of interiority related to houses and their neighbourhoods. The findings of this study show that the connection between domestic spaces to the neighbourhood may change depending on the women's activity, the agreement of social and cultural activities alternately in the domestic area, and shifting the domestic area into a commercial area. This spatial arrangement can guide residential areas and urban environments by considering domestic interiority in everyday life.
