Abstract

Setting up the direction for new product designs in the furniture business can be more or less structured and in many situations the idea for new design concepts, constructions, details, coloring or choice of material are directed by random input from retailers or external designers or from studying trend agency reports besides considering other matters like new market strategies etc.
In this paper the authors describe an attempt to create a richer discussion among a manufacturer and its retail partners by structured play/interviews using research data collected by design students at an international furniture fair. The experiment was developed and carried out by design engineering students and design researchers in collaboration with a furniture manufacturer and the results and methodology are presented and discussed in this paper.
