The thing purchased for convenience may quietly decide how a room must be arranged.

Objects come with requirements attached. The appliance needs a socket, the socket is on that wall, so the table moves, and the chair that used to catch the morning light ends up facing a cupboard. Nobody decided to rearrange the room around a machine. The machine simply had conditions, and everything else adjusted.

When something large arrives, look at the room afterwards and ask whether the new layout is one you would have chosen. Sometimes moving the object back is possible and simply never occurred to anyone. Convenience is worth having, and it should not get to redesign where you sit.
