An intuitive exploration of interior life and how our domestic spaces reflect the layered dualities of living. It is a study in how time,
light, and impulse shape our everyday environments, revealing a choreography of movement, mood, and meaning. 

Objects and belongings gather where the light invites them, arranged through instinctive gestures and responsive habit. The space is alive with dualities: rest and action, solitude and connection, clarity and obscurity. Home from Home invites you to dwell in this tension between stillness and transformation - to consider not only how we live, but how light lives with us. 

At Noura Residency, Charlotte Taylor reflects on how temporal and emotional shifts delineate the spatial logic of the home.
