Abstract
The conclusion for this research might also be taken to imply that by further isolating the personality temperaments regardless of the degree of extroversion, and performing a more rigorous statistical search for measurable, mathematical patterns of preference with respect to temperament, the development of a new range of evidence based architectural programming tools might become a realistic pursuit. This "tool" could tie all of the predetermined preferences based on the myriad of personal traits, and age and gender for that matter, together into a "custom-fitted" home, not just a custom-designed home. In other words, if the design product were a more reliable reflection of the client's "inner self," and could be achieved in a more time-efficient manner for the architect, then perhaps the consumer value of custom-designed homes would increase greatly.
