Description

Ben Highmore's Ordinary Lives examines the hidden richness of everyday experience through objects, work, media, and food. This study reveals how seemingly banal aspects of daily life contain profound meaning and passion. Highmore investigates familiar possessions like a favourite chair, repetitive tasks such as housework and typing, media consumption including television and radio, and the multicultural food landscape of Britain. By exploring the history of flat-pack furniture and the significance of ordinary objects, this work builds on previous scholarship to uncover the scintillating experiences embedded in routine existence, transforming how we understand the everyday world around us.

Key Features

Ordinary Lives offers case studies examining our relationship with everyday objects, work, media consumption, and food in contemporary life.

The study explores flat-pack furniture history and inorganic materials' presence in domestic spaces and daily routines.

Highmore's book investigates television viewing, radio listening, and distracted media consumption as meaningful everyday practices.

This Routledge publication examines multicultural British food culture and its role in shaping ordinary experience.

The work builds on previous scholarship to reveal passionate experience within seemingly repetitive tasks and familiar surroundings.
