가구를 디자인하는데 있어서 재료는 매우 중요한 요소이다. 목재는 가구 재료 가운데 가장 많은 부분을 차지하고 있다. 목재는 자연 재료로 부드럽고 환경 친화적인 반면에 수축과 팽창 같은 변화가 심해 목재가 지닌 특성을 고려하지 않으면 올바른 디자인을 할 수가 없다. 목재를 다루는 기술 가운데 휨 가공법은 가구의 다양한 형태를 만들어내는데 매우 유용한 기술 가운데 하나이며, 오래 전부터 가구제작에 사용되어 오면서 증기, 암모니아, 고주파 등 가공방법에 관한 기술적 발전을 가져왔다. 목재는 점탄성 물질로 약간의 가소성을 가지고 있어 힘을 가하면 아름다운 곡선을 만들 수 있는 재료적 특성을 가지고 있다. 따라서 이 논문은 지금까지 가구제작에 사용되어 온 휨 가공법의 종류와 그 특성들을 조사하여 대량생산 또는 소량생산에 적합한 방법들을 체계적으로 분류하여 가구의 형태와 생산방식에 따라 어떠한 가공법을 사용하여야 되는지를 연구하고자 한다. 이번 연구를 통해서 휨 가공방법의 장점은 가구디자인에서 디자이너의 다양한 아이디어를 표현할 수 있는 기술적 방법의 한 가지라 할 수 있다. 분석결과 증자처리 휨 가공은 다품종 소량생산에 적합하고, 암모니아 휨 가공은 스프링 백 현상이 없으며 다양한 자유곡선의 형태 가공에 적합한 방법이라 할 수 있다. 대량생산에서는 고주파 가공이 많이 사용되며, 거단 휨 가공은 작업방법이 용이했고, 적층 휨 가공은 가장 일반적인 가공법으로 소량 또는 대량생산에 모두 적합한 가공법이라 할 수 있다. 또한 이 연구를 통해 많은 가구 디자이너와 제작자들이 목재의 휨 가공에 도움을 주는데 목적이 있다.

Recently, shows the possibility of providing such dyed-gathered woods after forming single boar This studyds with using cheap timbers generated by the thinning. It is helpful for master artisans are suffering from finding qualified materials. Traditionally, the master artisan has been used the beautiful grained wood from around roots of old zelkova trees and black persimmon trees. Instead, this study shows that dyed-gathered woods replace the natural grained wood and also produces a furniture made of an aggregate and a plate from walnut trees and ash trees which are a contrast to dyed-gathered woods. Dyed-gathered woods can reproduce the various colors to satisfy people's tastes, and the dignified grains that we can see in the old woods. Besides, dyed-gathered woods can replace rare materials and provide higher reliability of supplies.

Increasing concerns of environment need to make change furniture field to more environmentally friendly approach, such as reuse of by-products from wooden products. As it is, the methods of recycling wood for industrial purposes have the advantage of productivity and adaptability. However, the industrial way is required a certain production facility of processing wooden by-products and has possible hygienic problems due to contaminated sources. Many designers have developed their own methods for reuse of wood in unique and artistic ways. Even so, because of confined sources, it could be not enough supply. Therefore, I developed the design methodology utilizing wooden by-products from S Design Company to relieve former ways' problems. The design suggestion took materials from a safe and abundant source. The wooden leftover pieces were connected together with epoxy clay, so previous process traces of furniture are remained as a decorative factor. Moreover, the synthesized material was able to be processed by ordinary woodworking facilities without additional installations. In doing so, console table focused on a commercial purpose and dining table for an artistic objective were successfully fabricated as final suggestions. In consideration of the proposal using wooden furniture leftovers, diverse recycling designs should be investigated for future reference.

This study is carried out to introduce the concept of Kagome structure as the new trial for the furniture design and the feasibility of its utilization in furniture industry. Kagome means originally the two dimensional bamboo-basket woven pattern that is composed of interlaced triangles whose lattice points each have four neighboring points, which was used in traditional bamboo craft design like 'Jukbuin(bamboo-wife)'. Its unique truss structure has been widely used by many kinds of the domain of science and engineering in mechanical and architectural industry with some merits, i,e, material utilization efficiency and robust strength. Here we tried to introduce two dimensional and three dimensional form of Kagome which are supposed to be a furniture design elements. Authors think these Kagome design could be realized with domestic lumber of inferior properties. Both of them would be used as a decorative element or mechanical supporter in furniture design.

This study was carried out to know the difference of vapor transmission on the thickness of Paulownia wood(Paulownia tomentosa). The behavior of moisture transmission of wood thickness direction is generally estimated by vapor permeability and vapor transmission resistance. In general, Paulownia wood is known to use of inside material for furniture making, because of the excellent ability of vapor adsorption and/or desorption. Quarter sawing Paulownia wood material is prepared and the thickness is 6.0mm, 7.0mm, 8.0mm, 9.0mm, 10.0mm, respectively. The measurement of vapor transmission were conducted by the "cup method" in accordance with JIS(Japanese Industrial Standard) Z-0208. The experiment was made in the condition of 49.8mmHg vapor pressure difference and $40^{circ}C$ at constant temperature. From the experiment results, it was considered that Paulownia wood is very stable on moisture variation and any other material conditions. In this experiment we found that the vapor permeability and vapor permeance was reduced with the increase of wood thickness to vapor direction and vapor transmission resistance and specific vapor transmission resistance was increased with the increase of wood thickness to vapor direction. Besides moisture contents of adsorption and desorption side were about 5 percent and 14 percent, respectively. Mean value was 9.5 percent and about 10 percent in dry oven method. Moisture gradient was reduced with the increase of wood thickness for a small moisture difference of adsorption and desorption side.
