I look at the section of the design framework between intentions and consequences, where the designed features of the artifact become affordances, or not, in the use or operation of that artifact. I suggest that the process by which artifact users afford themselves of its features is an organic one in which emergent uses can sprout and grow from the original designed features. I offer the metaphor of a tree and its branches for this process and show how the design framework gives us a closer view of the mismatch between features and affordances than in fidelity of implementation analysis.
