Deepti Pande Rana, Chanchal Kumari

Abstract


This research article examines the fascinating journey of the evolution of furniture design from the 1950s to the present, focusing on its impact on interior design. This study provides a comprehensive overview of the major changes in design concepts, materials and technology that led to the furniture industry's goal. Starting with the creative and artistic symbols of the Mid-Century Modern movement, this article explores later periods marked by experimentation, postmodernism, sustainability, and digital integration. Through constant observation of the designers and their ongoing work, this work demonstrates the integration of culture, society, and technology in furniture production. In addition, the study demonstrates the importance of security, adaptation and integration of technology and design today in terms of the effects on people's interior design today. Data science monitors this shift, providing interior designers with valuable resources to help them make informed decisions about combining aesthetics, functionality, and culture in their creative work.
