This paper addresses the
issue of social sustainability in the daily spatial practices in dwellings. In
particular, it discusses the establishment of sacred spaces in the everyday
activities of Moslems in their dwellings, as manifested through the boundaries
between clean and dirty zones related to religious rituals. The study employed
a qualitative approach and the use of a case study as the method. The case
study consists of six Moslem dwellings in urban areas, using in-depth
interviews and observations to obtain data about the activities and behaviors
of the dwellers. The boundaries between clean and dirty zones were found to be
established based on the journey of footwear in the house. The formation of
these boundaries could be considered a mechanism for maintaining the place’s
sustainability—a way to maintain the cultural identity of Moslems in their
dwellings. The sustainability of sacred places was established through social
agreement on the use of spaces and the boundaries defined for temporary spaces. |
