Furniture Design Method for Novice Learner

Abstract

Through observations and trials of furniture design teaching practices from 2009 to 2022, some teaching patterns were found which allow students to learn easier to design furniture with mass-produced direction. Furniture data from various sources (especially furniture factories and export buyers) with variations in types (dining chairs, dining tables, servers, benches, stools, night stands, beds, and many others, in individual item or collections) are collected as experimental materials from year to year. Three teaching patterns concluded which allow students’ easy learning are: 1) parts modification; 2) sizes modification; 3) product line extension
