78 While Table 9 delivered a broad overlook of mediated practices for all types of households, Table 10 designates some specific recommendations for the three user group types currently identified with Millennials. In these suggestions, some particular needs have been identified as primary complex needs with suggestive environment proposals. Table 10 Explicit Complex Needs and Recommended Interior Environment Proposals Divvied by User Groups

User Group Three

User Group Two

User Group One

Revealed Complex Needs Varied workspaces Streamlined environments Embrace nature and its nurturing capacities

Environment Proposals • Convey numerous workspaces and surfaces, giving the ability to move from one to another as needed. • Ensure physical disconnection is possible when work is done. • Equip dwellings with ‘smart home’ technology. • Create and provide adaptable furniture and equipment. • Introduce interior gardens (i.e., Click and Grow). • Provide natural and representation of nature, organic elements.

Flexible workspaces

• Provide noise control, some privacy, but not constant confinement. • Offer various arrangements, but with ease of caring for a child.

Motivate evolution for adult(s) and child

• Embrace supportive and innovative equipment for both parental support and child growth.

Open Communication

• Provide gathering spaces to entice interaction and autonomy. • Respect varied progress occurring, support with distinctly situated refuges, allowing parental intervals.

Embrace nature and its nurturing capacities

• Same as group one.

Flexible workspaces

• However, parallel to group two may require stricter separation of noise/privacy control dependent on work tasks (voice/video calls).

Motivate evolution for adult(s) and child Adequate spaces for each individual Open Communication Embrace nature and its nurturing capacities

• Same as group two, with the inclusion of informative/ instructive visuals. • Provide personal areas for each adult and child. • Separate bedrooms for each child or a type of divide if not. • Same as group two. • Establish and familiarize boundaries and respect for all users • Similar to group one, although its offerings can assist in teaching and many psychological detriments.

Note. Each of these complex needs is to be correlated with features shared in Tables 8 and 9. Additionally each are proposals that could diverge for the exclusivity of each client.
