But all objects also have specific traits that make them individual, unique (different objects occupy their own areas of space which no other object can occupy, different objects come into existence due to distinct causal histories, your desk has a different shape and color and smell compared to your phone and your window).

In summary, despite all the the different colors and shapes and spaces and causal histories of the objects of the world, they all share some basic, unchanging similarities defined by the laws of space, time, and logic, which Kant associates with the laws of mathematics and physics. These laws are the laws of your mind. The universe is a mental appearance, and its constant laws are imposed by the human mind - and since each human has a mind that works fundamentally the same as all other human minds, all humans agree on the fundamental characteristics of nature, each contributing their own private mental representations to a cooperative interpretation of a shared world.
