摘要

In 1952 Youngstown Kitchens told consumers, "Planning your kitchen is easy, and you'll have a lot of fun doing it!" Because customers selected from the company's line of steel cabinets and were free to arrange them as desired, promoters hoped to convince these amateur designers that the result would be a new, personalized cooking space. Similar encouragements for consumers to take part in designing their own remodeling projects were common in the rapidly expanding postwar home improvement market. After profiling an economy-minded couple who planned their own finished attic, a newsletter from a savings bank in Waycross, Georgia, advised customers to likewise "put the job on paper!" In Alhambra, California, a remodeling salesman described how, when visiting the homes of prospective clients, he asked them for help measuring the existing room. "And pretty soon I've drawn the customers into the act," he said. "They're part of the building project. They're selling themselves, although very likely they don't realize it." Home improvement promoters-building product manufacturers, local dealers, contractors, and sales teams-expected amateur design rhetoric to prompt feelings of investment in a project and to increase the chances for a signed contract.
