This study explored the literature review for intending to make contemporary furniture expressed as postmodern aesthetics accessible to the broadest possible public, particularly through an examination and realization of art and everyday life, using qualitative analysis about the related literature as the principal methodology. The postmodern furniture aesthetics of communication expressed through double-coding, which was seen by Charles Jencks as the defining element of Post-Modernism, is characterized by the use of ideas from the traditions of craft. Hence, I dealt with pre-Modern furniture and Modern-furniture aesthetics as the background of postmodern furniture called New design furniture. As a result, contemporary furniture called New design furniture represented the use of ornament, craftsmanship, or beauty from the traditions of craft, which was a main source for communication value in postmodern furniture aesthetics.

Communication has increasingly become important between peoples in the modern society. The change in the composition of a family brought by urbanization and industrialization caused structural changes in the society, and the lack of communication between people have incited various social conflicts rising from individualism and ego-centrism. Thus in this era, domestic environment is one of the most significant environment that enables one to transform into an appropriate member of the social community as well as develop appropriate traits of one. The living room, which served as an arena of communication for family members is now replaced with TV, a popular media, and has lost its original role in the house. The living room furnitures today are designed to facilitate people in viewing TV, not to enhance communication between family members. Thus in this research, I would like to propose a new concept of 'communication furniture' and various examples to suggest appropriate, desired role of living room furniture in households today. In addition, I hope this research contributes to forming a beneficial living room culture and a domestic environment as well as a heart-warming, human society.

This study is a review on the relationship between furniture purchasers and producers in the Joseon period. Understanding the relationships in our traditional spirit and the Joseon furniture that reflects a aesthetic sense is a meaningful work. Joseon was to build an ideal country which put emphasis on the order and harmony through Theory of 'Yeak' as the confucianism nation. Human aesthetics, which emphasis on the spiritual value by confirmity to nature and forcus on the relaxed, deficient personality rather than completeness was established as the central formative consciousness of the Joseon Dynasty. The nature of things in the confucian scholar prior to the representations of things is expressed in the form of master craftsman's skill and soul. Formative consciousness of the confucian scholar is to realize ideals by communciation and interchange with master craftsman's soul in the form of the Joseon furniture. The beauty of restraint and brevity in the Joseon Dynasty furniture includes meanings and procedures of art work. It implies an orderer's purpose of production and a producer's products. Understanding the spirit of times in the production becomes the cornerstone capable of getting closer to the furniture ultimate proper function. These problems have a very close relationship with the problems of modern people's commnuication. We expect an even higher growth of the furniture by achieving more improved communication based on the consumer's great insight and the producer's passion.

조선 왕조는 명나라, 청나라와 여러 차원의 긴밀한 교류를 가졌으며, 가구 조형 디자인의 발전 과정에서 같은 문화적 원천과 상호 왕래, 동일한 요소들이 서로의 가구 조형에서 나타나고 있다. 본 논문은 '조선시대 후기 가구'와 '명식(明式) 가구'를 연구 주제로 탁자(卓子)류 가구를 구체적인 연구 대상으로 삼아 양국 교류사의 연구를 결합한 '유사성'의 시각에서, 전체적 디자인과 부분적 디자인 두 가지 측면에서 양국 전통 가구의 조형 디자인을 검토했다. 구체적인 사례 분석에서 조선시대 소반(小盤), 경상(經床), 연상(硯床) 등의 탁자(卓子)류 가구는 명청시대의 항탁(炕桌), 방탁(方卓), 주탁(酒桌) 등 탁자(卓子)류 가구와 전체적인 조형 디자인에서 유사성을 나타냈다. 부분적인 디자인은 비슷한 두 나라의 가구의 안면(案面), 운각(雲角), 두루마리(卷筒), 다리(足) 등에서 유사성을 잘 보여주고 있다. 본 논문은 '풍혈(風穴)' 조형물의 연원(淵源)을 추정함으로써 한국 전통가구 문화에 대한 연구의 폭을 넓히고자 했다. 한중간에 다방면에 걸친 교류가 확대되고 있는 현실을 감안할 때, 전통가구에서 유사성을 탐색하는 것은 양국의 문화교류 과정을 분석하고 교류를 활성화하는 일에 도움이 될 것이다.
