| Summary: | 碩士 === 中原大學 === 室內設計研究所 === 99 === This study starts from the perspective of feminism and the viewpoint deriving from the patriarchal culture to discuss the environment of the existing masculinity. It attempts to explore the gender difference in different environments from the aspects of body and space, in particular, to explore the role of both genders from the modern indoor space in Taiwan. Furthermore, it attempts to thoroughly investigate females' experiences and transformations in space by historically discussing their role in space. Through the traditional value outlooks, it interprets the significance of modern family to males and females. And then starting from the perspective of gender, it discusses the living environment and the interior home design, the space for both genders as well as how gender differences in the space and role come up.
The construction of body and space leads the space to be divided into based on gender. Down the ages, the space used by females is restricted compared with that of males, but women are always the primary labor in the entire family. Therefore, the society with gender equality still needs to be discussed. Take the national interior designers as an example. The presentation of the interior home space needs to be inspected from the perspective of both genders. Why do the female designers design the works based on masculinity? The modern women have already owned the independent consumption ability and their design also start to emphasize the independent space of females. The problem is why the masculine space still dominates the entire society, and even female designers keep creating the masculine space.
To create equal space for both genders, it needs mutual understanding and respect. The female body space is discussed and the significance of Taiwan modern interior housing is interpreted. The goal of this thesis is to discuss the role which females have played in home space since the old times, and which still influences the spatial indications in today's interior design in Taiwan.
