Examining the Effects of the Industrial Revolution on Furniture

Furniture is a phenomenon that takes place in human life as a design product. This phenomenon is located at the intersection of many fields of study that seem distant from each other, such as engineering, natural sciences, and art approaches in their historical process. When looking at the historical process of furniture, if the term furniture designer is used, it can be seen that these designers are sometimes an artist, architect, artisan, engineer, industrial product designer and interior designer. These disciplines and professional groups, which have differences in common as well as common aspects, can be considered as an indication of the extent of furniture occupying human life. This study was carried out to investigate the effects of the industrial revolution on furniture design.
