My grandmother had a 'front room.' You opened the front door and saw this perfectly decorated room, that no one used. It was literally for guests to see and walk through. She never used the furniture. Just maintained this display room for potential guests to see.
Most species invest a significant proportion of time, energy, and resources in signaling, one way or another. (My book 'Spent' analyzes conspicuous consumption in that framework).

I have been stuck, and self-quarantined in what was once my mum's front room. That sort of a room is quite common in Turkey.
