comfort and design

Vink, P. (2005). Comfort and design: Principles and good practice. Boca Raton: CRC Press.

I found a book that looked at comfort in the use of products. it focused mostly on ergonomics and space rather then anything else. it described comfort as "influenced by many factors in the environment. that means that it is not easy to design, market or manage with factors of design." "there is at least three problems face us in striving for comfort; 1. the exact cause of discomfort or comfort is unknown, there is no model available that describes the cause of comfort. 2. every individual has his or her own meaning of comfort. comfort is a subjective phenomenon. 3. the comfort design process is not described and the approach is unknown." i found this book more interesting then other reading i had found as it talked more about the physical aspect of comfort rather then the mental aspect. I feel that this would be easier to create an experience. 

The problem that keeps on coming up when I read about comfort is that it is a subjective phenomenon this then means that it is up to the user to decide if they are comfortable and everyone will experience it  differently. i also fell that comfort can come off as an initial factor and over time you get use to the surrounding and you take comfort for granted so when making my experience I would want it to be short so the user will appreciate it fully.
