A Study on the Expression of Behavior Using Furniture in Visual Arts

The meaning and context of objects has been changed in various ways depending on the times. Functionality of objects has been developed in various directions according to the point of view of the objects. Objects have been used as mediums to realize art in daily life, and to realize the relational forms. Based on this, it is confirmed that furniture can be an appro-priate medium to articulate everyday life and to derive relational form. The ‘furniture as a be-havior’ has the following characteristics. First, it functions to make daily life unfamiliar. By do-ing something unfamiliar in everyday life, users experience similar experiences as when they en-tered the surreal world of art museum. In this way, the possibility of everyday arts is acquired. Second, the mental and behavioral functions of furniture are continuously changed by inter-action with the user. Behavior does not occur unconsciously, but involves changes in conscious-ness that the user intentionally does. Therefore, as the user’s level of consciousness grows, per-sonal experience changes, and the behavioral function of the household changes. The study of ‘furniture as a behavior’ is suggested as one approach to design furniture.
