The Roman Household and House

The Elite Domus Typical elite houses evolved from Etruscan atrium-style houses, with the addition of Greek style peristyle (colonnaded) gardens. Usually were one floor, with a main reception room (atrium) surrounded by bedrooms (cubicula), dining room (triclinium), record room/office (tablinum).

Elite Houses, Inside and Out

The Gender of Space? Greek elite houses were built to hide the women of the family from contact with men outside the family. Sight lines were constructed so that no one could see the inner quarters of the house from the front door/front room.

Houses of the Poor Poorer working people lived in rooms behind or above their places of work. The elite often rented out the front rooms of their houses, on either side of the entrances, for use as shops, workrooms, or restaurants, often with living space included. The lower classes also lived in apartment buildings (insulae).
