Figures & data

Figure 1. The means-end approach applied to understanding interior designers’ decisions as a hierarchical cognitive model.

Figure 2. The steps of the means-end chain analysis which was applied to find common design strategies to create social office space.

Figure 3. Hierarchical map of the interior designer’s strategies, showing the direct linkages (cut-off = 3) between design attributes (▪) at the bottom, affordances (●) in the middle, and goals (♦) at the top. Black line = ≥ 8 linkages; solid grey line = 5-7 linkages; dashed line = 3-4 linkages.
