One question has been bothering me: why are rooms square?<p>Some say that it's more economical to build this way, and that it causes less problems with aligning furniture to the wall.<p>But that doesn't explain billionaire houses. They certainly love spending money on them, yet despite all kinds of extravaganza, the rooms are also mostly square.<p>So i think it's something deeper, I think it's just too suspicious that across most modern cultures rooms are square. My theory is that it's related to the fact that we have 4 sides, so it's kind of symmetrical that we prefer to live in 4-sided things too.
