What, apart from those things that are practically necessary, makes a house a home? It is a place to feel secure, sheltered emotionally as well as physically, a private place apart from the world outside. A house is where people come together, it is also where they may choose to be alone. Sometimes it is a place for peace and quiet, at other times a place to party. Above all, the house is a place to belong, to have a sense of identity.
