What role does furniture play in the indoor environment?

The function of furniture in indoor environment can be summarized as: organizing space, shaping space, optimizing space and setting off atmosphere. (1) Organizational space furniture is an exhibition that defines the spatial characteristics, reflects the use, grade and specifications of space, and can often shape different spaces through the enclosure of furniture. For example, in the lobby bar of the hotel, surround the sofa and coffee table to form a leisure space for negotiation; In the residential environment, bed, bedside table, wardrobe and other combinations form a bedroom rest space. From this perspective, furniture has played a positive role in the organization of space. (2) Shaping Space In the residential space, people's attention will first focus on indoor furniture, followed by the design of interface components and the creation of indoor light environment. Furniture, first of all, because of its clear functionality, has completed the shaping of space; Secondly, the style modeling of furniture further highlights the style tone of indoor space. The same indoor space and different styles of furniture can reflect completely different atmosphere. (3) Optimizing Space In the limited indoor space of a house, satisfying people's living behavior to the greatest extent is one of the excellent standards of indoor environment, which requires giving full play to the optimization role of space in furniture configuration. There are two ways to optimize the space. 1. The opening and closing of the combined multifunctional area space can be realized by the arrangement of furniture, and the use of furniture for space separation is also a common method in the traditional indoor environment. For example, using the screen to skillfully create a semi-closed and psychologically completely closed available space not only separates and defines the space, but also properly handles the relationship between the virtual reality and the density of the space, and is also very flexible and easy to move. 2. The control of furniture scale can effectively adjust the sense of space scale by controlling the quantity and volume of furniture, thus optimizing the space. For example, bulky furniture takes up more space and makes the space fuller; Small furniture takes up less space and is spacious. In addition, the choice of furniture appearance can also optimize the spatial adjustment spatial scale. For example, embedded furniture can form an integral spatial interface; The unity of color can also regard furniture as background color, weakening the sense of volume of space; Furniture with mirrors can enlarge the space, and the use of transparent materials can enhance the permeability and fluidity of the space in a narrow space. (IV) Setting off the atmosphere Different cultural backgrounds and aesthetic tastes in each region, different geographical conditions and different furniture materials will inevitably produce strong national brands and regional characteristics of furniture. When we shape the style characteristics of space, we often use such factors to make the audience sing for it.
