In Great Expectations the dwelling places of the characters reflect on their personality. Joe's house is very simple and plain. These characteristics describe Joe because he himself is a simple man and doesn't care for riches and popularity. Also living in his house is Mrs. Joe. Mrs. Joe abuses both Pip and Joe with tickler. Though the house appeared to be clean and nice on the outside, it was really messed up and there were marks in the places where the beatings had happen. Miss Havisham lived in a very extravagant home that looked like it had been frozen in time. This relates to Miss Havisham because after her husband-to-be didn't show up at the alter, she fell into a deep depression, didn't leave her house and never took off her wedding dress after her that day. Also to add to that she kept her wedding cake from her wedding. The characters are very different from each other and their houses help the readers to better understand their personalities. The houses show us more than you would think about their lives and their personalities.
