I love bridges. If I see a cool looking bridge, I want to cross it, especially if it goes somewhere that I’m not familiar with. Same with stairs outdoors. They feel like an adventure to me.

    Not exactly childish but, assembling furniture. I’m excited when I buy furniture that arrives disassembled because I get to look at the instructions and build it myself. I guess it resonates with setting up and assembling toys, just with adult things instead.

        Their assembly instructions are even designed the same way. Those Scandanavians definitely know how to write an assembly manual!

      The IKEA empire is built on this feeling. If you put it together yourself, you’re more inclined to feel that it’s better quality

      In actual fact, 90% of IKEA stuff is well-designed cheaply made shit
