Customers Perspective on Mass-customization of Houses

Kwiecinski, Krystian; Duarte, Jose P.

:

This paper presents the results of usability tests of HOPLA (Home Planner), acomputer-assisted design system developed to enable customization of housedesigns. The study aimed to verify whether the proposed method allowsnon-expert users to configure a house design that meets their expectations in alimited time. The experiments were carried out in two modes of the tool: M mode- modification of a proposed design and S mode - configuration of a design fromscratch. The study encompassed two independent experiments carried out on twocontinents and examined the impact of cultural differences on the expectations ofnon-expert users towards computer-assisted customization of single-familyhouses.
