Abstract

The article explores the potential of an enactivist and embodied approach to the design of living spaces. Starting from the configuration of domestic spaces, the author proposes an integration of bodily knowledge and embodied consciousness, highlighting how this relationship can lead to transformative and socially generative solutions. Through an interdisciplinary analysis across phenomenology, perception, and temporality, the article emphasizes the importance of an integrated and situated way of living, capable of reshaping both the spaces and the individuals who inhabit them. This approach seeks how the body modulates the inhabited space and how bodily action can lead to a generative design, reflecting on concepts of selfhood and relationship. Thus, the present research pursues a design culture that not only responds to physical needs, but also considers the dynamic interaction between body and environment, as much as the collective, as a process.
