At the same time, property developers, government agencies and even citizen associations suppress customisation because they believe it is inefficient or "out of (their) control." Yet without incremental customisation, the everyday environment cannot be healthy. The challenge is to make customisation efficient and harmonious. Residential fit-out is one solution.
