Abstract
This article seeks to describe how the change of the spaces reserved for children in the residential architecture has generated a new object of study that has been named as bedroom culture. If the empirical object is new in the childhood studies field, the theoretical issues are frequently the deployment of diverse aspects of the material culture. Therefore, this paper has elected three main issues: the concept of material culture of childhood, the use of the notion of space in academic research, and, finally, the relationship between subjects (children in this case) and objects.
