It is found that mobility and portable furniture are the new needs of people, so the design of this furniture is proposed
- Inspiration
- With the changing dwelling lifestyle, the typical sitting culture furniture, such as Soban, is still frequently used in contemporary life. Furniture has always been a medium to showcase the human way of life, and we can understand that era's culture and social structure through furniture. The Soban has changed from a necessity with a transport and dining table function to auxiliary furniture in contemporary life. Therefore, the design of modern Soban needs to be reconsidered the culture and behavior of the users so that it can meet the modern lifestyle.
