Understand
Start with real routines, constraints, current tools, space, and maintenance tolerance. Do not assume a new product is the answer.
The MISEFORM method
Need first. Fit second. Price after.
MISEFORM carries forward the Kichi OS principle: Buy less. Choose better. Cook more. The aim is to help people make a better kitchen decision—not push them toward a purchase.
Fit
Find the simplest system that resolves the need. Keep a working tool when it already fits; recommend added complexity only when it earns its place.
Worth it?
Only after fit is clear should someone consider whether spending more solves a meaningful problem. Price and commission are not measures of fit.
