Abstract

Materials Technology has caused a huge surge in the development of furniture design and
formation concepts,using modern methods of designing, manufacturing, installation and
implementation. And here lies the problem of the research in how the designer takes
advantage of technological advances and the diversity of the materials in the development of
design thought for furniture . So research aims to clarify the role of technology and materials,
which had a great impact in the development of furniture design and formation concepts,
and implementing it using modern techniques. There is no doubt that the presence of materials
and its development is always associated with technical and intellectual development, as the
extent of available techniques in front of the designer helps him to create new thoughts and
ideas in a different era , here the design appears with new ideas and innovation. Some units
of furniture have appeared with innovative designs connected to determinants space, because
of the ability of configurable modern materials used in the execution, and other furniture
appeared with Interactive designs characterized by the ability of its constituent materials to
change their properties according to the desire of user, by adding sensors and the use of
phosphoric materials making light and also Thermo chromic materials...etc. Therefore, the
designer should be fully aware of the modern materials and their characteristics and its
capabilities and also the latest methods of execution, to be able to choose the right materials
for the implementation of designs according to the needs of its users. The research also deals
with some samples and analyses of some modern models of furniture with advanced design
thinking and capabilities of formation and usability unfamiliar before
