Geometric perspective is one of the most important methods of engineering representation, and it is one of the applications of central projection , as it is used to produce a realistic image similar ...to the image captured with a camera lens . It is a science based in general on the linear representation of figures and objects on a plane surface in a certain position and at a certain distance from the point of view in a geometric way that achieves the transformation of those figures and objects into a photographic image on the drawing board where the lines converge at a point or points on an assumed oplical level , and thus the elements appear far is smaller than near , and so on . The importance of drawing the geometric perspective on an oblique projection plane is to get a perspective shot of a piece of furniture that is closer to reality and spatially expresses the piece of furniture in a better and more realistic way during the design process and before production begins . When we look at a piece of furniture , we often do not look at it in the direction of vision always in a horizontal position , but we move our eyes up and down , this movement chages the direction of vision and as a result this movement also creates another vanishing point fot vertical elements and lines ,when changing the direction of vision up we see walls and vertical elements and lines as if they meet at some point above , on other side when we change the direction of vision down we see lines and vertical elements and lines as if they meet at a point below . Since drawing the geometric perspective is one of the basic skills that the furniture designer must possess to show his ideas more clearly during the design process and before production process .The idea of the research arose from finding a method to draw the geometric perspective better , more realistic and closer to the image we see with our eyes , through drawing geometric perspective on an oblique projection plane and the effect of applying this method on furniture presentation process .

British officers of high social position in the Georgian and Victorian periods (1714-1901) took it for granted that when they set out on a military campaign in Africa or India they could enjoy the ...same standard of living as they did at home. While “ under canvas,” as life in camp was called, an officer and gentleman assured himself a high degree of comfort by using specially designed pieces of campaign, or knockdown, furniture. The only real difference between fine household furniture and its campaign counterpart was that the latter could be quickly folded up, packed away in boxes and transported everywhere easily and conveniently. Officer’s campaign furniture included chests, writing desks, bookcases, games tables, chairs, beds, sofa and washstands. Durability and comfort were the most important characteristic of campaign furniture, the campaign furniture logo "Don't make yourself feel uncomfortable for the lack of things you're used to, this is the great secret of camp life", as campaign furniture was made of the best materials and was usually made of beautiful forest wood carved into modern designs and furniture is filled inside its own box or cloth cover to protect furniture during transportation. The campaign furniture is not only durable and practical, but also elegant and designed with the latest contemporary taste. The innovation of campaign furniture is more than just an attractive chapter in British history but it is a good example of how cultural characteristics may lead to a unique type of furniture that can be filled and moved, as it contains the skills of the finest makers and designers of the 18th and 19th centuries and today the increased interest of designers in this furniture requires a thorough examination of every aspect of these ingenious pieces and the circumstances in which they were made...

Applied art and handicrafts are the expression of society spirit, starting from its geographical nature and local raw materials, to its traditional costumes and others... With the trend of the ...general taste in society to acquire contemporary pieces of furniture with modern and attractive materials such as stainless steel, traditional and handicrafts began to disappear with the stability of their traditional forms of output. The uses of these pieces have receded into specific and classic forms of limited use and limited audience as well.The research aims to develop crafts inspired from the heritage of Egypt, and presents an overview of the most important traditional Egyptian crafts in the south. As such an overview is presented of the most important features of traditional Egyptian furniture, the most important traditional Egyptian crafts, and the materials incorporated into the manufacture of furniture and its accessories through the ages. The shadow casts on a type of folk art that can be incorporated into the furniture design concept, which is the (Shadow Imagination) style as a type of Egyptian expressive folk art, where folk art is considered a source of sustainability for the Egyptian heritage. By presenting models for integrating non-wood materials into the furniture industry through the ages with traditional wooden furniture, a historical overview of the Egyptian methods of integrating wood and other materials is formed. The research moved to present an attempt to sustain heritage by merging some folk crafts with their traditional materials and folk arts associated with them with contemporary furniture and modern materials to present a model for trying to revive these crafts and materials and to integrate them recently.In the end, the research presents some examples of contemporary pieces of furniture spread in the Egyptian market in addition to modern and heritage materials. Which it is proposed to integrate into contemporary Egyptian furniture designs to keep pace with the general taste in the Egyptian market. With the aim of presenting samples of contemporary furniture designs proposed by the researcher inspired by the Egyptian character by merging traditional materials and techniques with modern materials. In addition to presenting design models as applications of integrating modern technology in manufacturing with the heritage style in furniture design.
ABSTRACT Furniture design has traditionally taken second place to architecture in historiography, especially in Turkey. The consequent limited furniture-related academic publications, original ...material, and documentation make it necessary to probe further into Turkey's modern furniture history. The DATUMM (Documenting and Archiving Turkish Modern Furniture) Project (datumm.org) (2013-) was initiated to help fill this gap in the history of modern furniture design in Turkey between 1930 and 1975. Other than highlighting furniture, the documentary aimed to initiate an oral history project that has not been conducted in the design realm before in Turkey. Oral history interviews were conducted with thirteen contributors, including designers, artisans, and producers, who have significantly influenced Turkish modern furniture design. This method gave a voice to those who have not been able to contribute to Turkey's design history and reveals individual stories to construct a more comprehensive narrative. These interviews thus provide valuable opportunities to grasp what is hidden in the written history, and understand the shared stories, experiences, and struggles of designers to create a flourishing discipline from almost nothing.
