Appropriating design with
supervised ease
Jari had at some point invested some time into their physical apartment, but not
much anymore. Jari’s approach to design decisions was simple and straightforward
because Jari based his decisions on his family’s needs and likes or (when it
came to professional and sports equipment) his extensive knowledge of brands
and performance. In short, questions of style had apparently no importance
to Jari as opposed to the product’s performance, which made his own decision
making and his dwelling with design easy and, let’s say, efficient, since his
evaluation of performance was based on measurable facts; on the other hand,
since he said that he did not care about style, he was comfortable with dwelling
according to his wife’s and kids’ stylistic preferences.
