Comfort
March 1, 2018
Look at a day when you are supremely satisfied at the end. It's not a day when you lounge around doing nothing; it's when you had everything to do, and you've done it.
-Margaret Thatcher

"Comfort is subjective, and like everything else, culture-bound," wrote Jim Greenman in the book, Caring Spaces, Learning Places: Children's Environments that Work. "It has to do with softness, responsiveness, familiarity, and a reasonable level of sensory stimulation – neither too much nor too little...In schools, workplaces, and other institutions, many things are far too hard, edgy, cold, and unrelenting. People like things rounded, cushioned, and warm to touch. A hard physical setting combined with the inflexibility of institutional or group life, deadens people or puts them on edge."
