This article contains a brief description of furniture design educational approach at Purdue University, Wood Research Laboratory. Aesthetic design, strength design, and design for manufacturing are presented and emphasized to student as equal components of a good design. Students are trained to understand these components and use them in synergy. Product engineering, strength design, and performance testing of furniture are essential parts of the furniture design curriculum. Performance testing is a common tool used to improve the durability and safety of furniture products and to predict failure or unexpected problems associated with the proposed construction. Students are trained that product testing and evaluation are needed to obtain safe and reliable furniture products and should provide pertinent information to designers, manufacturers and customers. Encouraged hands-on experience and rapid prototyping by CNC equipment are essential components of furniture design education, and the overall teaching method leads to meritorious student designs.
