Focuses on how innovation in furniture design is inspired. The four sources of inspiration explored are user needs, aesthetic interpretation, material and manufacturing technologies, and environmental impact. The interplay among these four sources of inspiration is examined with emphasis on the first, user needs. Assignments involve both analyzing furniture products currently on the market and designing and constructing a furniture piece for a special population inclusive of young children, older adults, and people of any age living with a congenital or hereditary condition, injury, or disease.
