Furniture for what next..
Furniture is artefacts that change the ‘fashion’ of the
environment.
A building without furniture is like an environment
without a soul. Furniture is a complex combination
of art and the science of environment. It does not
only represent a piece of functional artefact but is a
parameter of social changes. It must answer the need
of the users to comply with the up-to-date lifestyle.
Unification of new media, technology, materials and
industrial design processes assisted enormously in
design research that lead to multifunctional furniture
design which are tailored to meet the user needs and aspirations. STEdex’13 furniture represents furniture that sustains a physical and psychological relationship with the end user. STEdex’13 furniture aims to go beyond consideration of neither form-follow-function nor function-follow-form but they are ‘philosophical form of desire’. Therefore, the furniture were designed to be fun, emotionally connect and pleasurable with the end user through their sustainable design form and also by being functionality aesthetic simultaneously.
