I don't understand that argument. My toaster only needs to work in my kitchen, not every kitchen.
From a manufacture's point of view I get it. It is cheaper to produce 3 colors than 54.
- rockbruno 4y agoThey're talking about a design perspective. People like the lime green toaster because it by itself looks nice, but if they placed it in _their_ kitchen, it would probably look absolutely ridiculous unless they're designers and know how to perfectly balance such a strong color in the room. In contrast, neutral colors will look good in any color palette and require zero design talent from your side.
- solumunus 4y agoWe're talking about the context of this "study". If people are asked which toaster they want to take home, the vast majority of them will have a kitchen where "grey, steel, white or black" works the best, even if they prefer another color. They're not going to redesign their entire kitchen for a particular toaster.
