    The document discusses the concept of "wearable architecture", where buildings and clothing provide similar functions of shelter, protection, and expression of identity. It suggests that architecture could be like clothing in allowing people to choose environments based on their moods or needs. Wearable architecture reflects changing relationships with domestic spaces as people's mobility increases and concepts of intimacy evolve, creating new demands. References explore parallels between fashion and architecture, as well as the idea that one's home could be worn.

    Wearable Architecture
    Wearing clothing means putting a barrier between our body and the
    outside world. The primary function of both clothing and buildings has always
    been to provide the body with shelter and protection (Miles, 2008) but also
    from others' sight. At the same time wearing particular kind of clothing
    shows the exterior world who we are or, what kind of person we want other
    people to think we are. It expresses in what kind of mood we are or to what
    kind of group we belong. The architecture is able to change our mood; it's
    able to make us feel melancholic or ebullient, energetic or relaxed.
    Architecture is a strong sensorial experience, one where colors, smell,
    temperature drive our mind to particular places. Ideally, we would use
    architecture as our wardrobe, going to a particular place or another
    depending on our mood - looking for a specific sensorial relation to the
    environment depending on our individual needs (Mannino, 2003). This
    reflects on the change in our relationship with the domestic environment,
    due to the effects of our increasing mobility, and how this has affected our
    concept of intimacy, creating new demands (Alter, 2010). That
    express ideas of personal, social, and cultural identity(Juinio, 2010).
