While I am focusing on human centered design, I think it is only appropriate to discuss other facets of design that lend themselves to this idea. Architecture is a discipline that lends itself well to software design. Architecture has undergone this maturation process over many centuries to focus more on the end user that consumes the design and has transformed this functional space into everyday living. Successfully optimizing for the 80%.

This act in simplicity brings a sense of purpose. While the architect, Neil Denari, has put his signature stamp on the aesthetics, this urban home design is not only aesthetically pleasing (at least for me), but is optimized for functional relevancy.
