1. Concentration claim
In a room you actually sit in, light, the path through it, and one color carry how it feels. Another object is the catalog.
2. Hard anchors
- Neil Klepeis and colleagues, National Human Activity Pattern Survey, 2001 — n = 9,386, United States, early 1990s. About 87% of time in enclosed buildings. About 69% in a residence. About 6% in vehicles. https://europepmc.org/article/MED/11477521
2b. Field 80/20 examples
| Approx % claim | Field / context | Source | Where it will sit |
|---|---|---|---|
| About 87% indoors, about 69% in a residence. Not an 80/20 of furniture | Where the day goes | Klepeis et al. 2001 | You live indoors |
| Intro 20% / 80% is the rule applied to light, path, and color | Practice | Hedge in prose | Opening |
3. Original observation
Change light or path, not both, and buy nothing. Live with it for three evenings.
4. Ignored majority
A new sofa while the lamp glares, twelve objects that ask to be dusted, a trend color you dislike at 7 a.m., a room staged for a photograph.
5. Composite policy
No 60-30-10 presented as a law. No invented client.
6. Only-on-8020 idea
Most of life is already indoors. The room you sit in is the design problem.
7. Device budget
Template F. One 8020 move. viz: no.
