Introduction
Room (from the Latin habitatǐo, -ōnis, from "habitare", "to live in"), chamber, room or piece, is an architectural concept that designates each of the spaces in a home separated by partitions and intended for different functions.[1] Depending on the predominant function, they can be called bedroom (or alcove), dining room, living room (or living room -and living room, and parlor-, or chamber). -and antechamber, and dressing room, and dressing room-),[2] cabinet "Cabinet (room)"), study "Study (room)"), office, etc. Other rooms of the home may or may not receive such a generic name, such as kitchens "Kitchen (room)"), toilets (or bathrooms or toilets), corridors "Hallway (architecture)") (or bays, or galleries "Gallery (architecture)")), halls (or hallways, or vestibules, or hall or lobby "Lobby (room)")), patios (or porches, or atriums), terraces "Terrace (architecture)") (or balconies, or gazebos), attics (or attics), basements (or cellars "Bodega (viticulture)"), or cellars "Cava (cellar)")); and other differentiated spaces that may or may not be located in the same complex with those intended for habitation by people: warehouses (or barns, or storage rooms, or coal sheds), garages") (or garages), those intended for domestic animals (stables, kennels, pigsties, chicken coops "Chicken coop (structure)"), pigeon coops "Palomar (building)"), etc.
The rooms are usually covered by ceilings and separated from other interior spaces by interior walls (usually partitions) with a door that allows access between them; and from the outside, through exterior walls (normally walls) with windows.
According to the Dictionary of the Royal Academy of Language, "room" can specifically designate the bedroom as well as generically any room.[3].
History
The use of rooms, understood as interior divisions of the housing space, dates back at least to Neolithic towns, as seen in the Çatalhöyük site (8th to 6th millennia BC, present-day Turkey), where the houses did not open onto streets, but rather to upper platforms that connected them through the main room, which had ovens and cooking fires on the south wall and elevated platforms. At least two different rooms were used for different activities, and auxiliary rooms for storage.
Different types of rooms can be identified in the early structures, including bedrooms, kitchens, bathrooms, reception rooms and other specialized uses. Excavations at Akrotiri reveal rooms that were sometimes built on top of other rooms connected by a staircase, bathrooms with alabaster fixtures such as sinks, bathtubs and toilets, all connected to complex dual plumbing systems of ceramic pipes for separate hot and cold water.[4].
In the ancient Greek house (oikos) the public, masculine areas (andron) were differentiated from the private, feminine areas (gynaikon, a Spanish term translated as "gynoecium "Gynoecium (Ancient Greece)")), with a thalamos "thalamus (architecture)") or marital bedroom.
The ancient Roman house, both urban (high-class single-family homes -domus - and collective, high-rise homes -insulae-) and rural (villae of the large owners), had very complex construction forms with a variety of room types, including some of the first examples of rooms for indoor baths. Obviously, rural homes with a much older tradition had a simpler plan, which in many cases did not include interior divisions. The uses and names in Latin of the interior divisions of upper-class houses (urban or rural) have persisted in Western civilization for millennia, until today (vestibulum, atrium, tablinum, triclinium, cubicula).
The medieval monasteries of Latin Christianity (Western Europe), particularly since the expansion of the Benedictine order and its reforms (Cluniac and Cistercian), maintained a great homogeneity in their distribution of spaces: cloister, chapter house, refectorium, cilla "Cilla (architecture)"), scriptorium, individual cells "Cell (convent)") for the monks.
Although there are precedents from the Flemish primitives of the century (The Arnolfini Marriage, by Jan van Eyck, 1434), the rooms of the Dutch houses of the century, witnesses of the flourishing of a proud bourgeoisie that sought to enjoy the interior spaces, were of great interest to its painters, such as Johannes Vermeer or Pieter Janssens Elinga. As for his colleagues from the Southern Netherlands or Spain, it is notable that the rooms of the more aristocratically pretentious house of Peter Paul Rubens in Antwerp (Rubenshuis) have been preserved.
In pre-Columbian America, the Anasazi civilization also had an early complex development of room structures, probably the oldest in North America, while the Central American Maya had very advanced room configurations from several hundred years earlier.
In Chinese history, at least in the early Han dynasty (approximately 200 BC), forms of multi-level buildings with comfortable rooms emerged, particularly for religious and public purposes; These designs featured many structures with rooms and included vertical connections of rooms. The Forbidden City of Beijing, in its 720,000 square meters, contains 800 buildings (or "pavilions" Pavilion (architecture)") with a number of rooms calculated with the symbolic figure of 9,999 and a half (since the Son of Heaven should not challenge divinity, for whose heavenly palace the figure of ten thousand was reserved).[7] The architecture of other Far Eastern civilizations, such as the Japanese, is developed in a similar way.
Room types
Contenido
Algunas habitaciones se diseñan especialmente para apoyar el trabajo doméstico, como cocinas y despensas, cuya función es la preparación y almacenamiento alimentario. Una oficina de casa o el estudio "Estudio (habitación)") pueden ser utilizados para papeleo de casa o propósitos empresariales externos. Algunas habitaciones de trabajo están designadas para la actividad pretendida: por ejemplo, el cuarto de costura") (sewing room")) para ese tipo de labores, y otras piezas situadas o no en la propia vivienda (lavadero y tendedero) para cuidado de la ropa.
Otras habitaciones son usados para promover la higiene, como el inodoro (letrina o retrete) y el cuarto de baño (con lavabo, ducha o bañera), los cuales pueden combinarse o disponerse en piezas separadas. El equivalente en espacios públicos son los baños públicos, que pueden o no contener todas esas instalaciones (urinario, casa de baños); aunque incluso en la Antigüedad eran mucho más sofisticados (termas romanas, baños árabes o turcos).
En los siglos XVII, XVIII, y XIX, entre los que podían pagarlo, estas instalaciones estuvieron mantenidas en áreas separadas. La cocina se separaba de la parte principal de la casa, o se disponía en el sótano, para reducir el riesgo de fuego y mantener el calor y los olores de cocinar fuera de la casa principal (sobre todo durante los meses cálidos).[8] El lavabo, a menudo una letrina de fosa sencilla, solía estar en el exterior, para mantener olores e insectos fuera de la casa principal.
Social areas
A variety of room types have been distinguished over time whose main purpose was socializing with other people. A living room or lounge (sale de sejour in French, living room or sitting room in English - literally "room to live" or "to sit"-) is conceived as a space suitable for visits and social gatherings.
In previous centuries, great houses had great halls (great halls) in English palaces and stately homes) which, as a main room, could be used for all types of social gatherings and a dining room for banquets; which, cleared of tables and provided with music, could be converted into a ballroom.
In other parts of the house, there could be a drawing room") (literally "drawing room")", but not limited to that function), with greater privacy, for the owner's family and his friends of greater trust and privacy (cabinet "Cabinet (room)").
Some large houses had rooms specially designed for a specific leisure activity; such as a library, a music room (from which comes the genre called "chamber music"), a theater or home cinema, a billiard room, a games room, or a smoking room.
Bedroom
A bedroom is the room where a bed is located and whose main purpose is to sleep. The master bedroom can have a bathroom. A guest room") is a bedroom used primarily by overnight guests. A children's room") is a bedroom for babies or small children. It can be separate from the playroom, which is a room where children's toys are kept.
The bedrooms can have other uses. A large house may have separate rooms for these other functions, such as a dressing room for changing clothes (also seen in clothing stores and businesses where people need to change clothes, but do not need to sleep). In the Tudors, a bedroom could have a separate closet, to pray and seek privacy; This architectural idea persists in the closet understood as a storage closet.[8].
In the United Kingdom, many houses are built to contain a separate room (box room") or boxroom") -"box room"-) that is easily identifiable, being smaller than the others. The small size of these rooms limits their use, and they are often used as a small single bedroom, a small child's bedroom or as a storage room. Other separate rooms of this type may house a live-in domestic servant (servant's room). Traditionally, in country houses and larger suburban houses until the 1930s in Britain, the separate room was for the storage of boxes, trunks, portmanteaux, and the like, rather than for bedroom use.[9].
A sick room") is a specialized room, sometimes large enough to contain a bed, where a family member can be conveniently cared for and kept separate from the rest of the household while recovering from an illness.
Multipurpose rooms
In smaller homes, most rooms were multipurpose. In a studio, community apartment or studio, a single main room can serve most functions, except usually the toilet and bathroom. Multipurpose room types include the great room, which eliminates most of the walls and doors between the kitchen, dining room and living room to create a larger, more open area.
In some places, a lady's boudoir was a combination bedroom and place to entertain a small number of friends. In others, the dressing table was an anteroom to the bedroom.

Aunque no se refiera específicamente a una habitación de un establecimiento hostelero, el ensayo de Virginia Woolf Una habitación propia (A Room of One’s Own, 1929), desarrolla el tema de la privacidad necesaria para la emancipación femenina, particularmente en el ámbito literario.
Suite and room with bathroom
A suite "Suite (hotel)") is a particularly luxurious hotel room.
An en-suite room is a type of room that includes a private room, a private toilet, and access to a communal kitchen.[12] The toilet generally includes an en-suite shower, a sink, and a toilet. "En-suite" usually indicates a private space, especially if it is student accommodation. Student suite rooms are designed to offer study space and a quiet environment.[13].
