A Study on Transformable Up-cycled Furniture Design for Single-person Households

Our country is changing from a large family society in the past to a nuclear family (4-person household) society and again to a single-person households society at present. In particular, as of 2020, 1 in 5 households with one person is in their twenty (19.1% of all households), and if you include 16.8% of those in their thirty, it is 35.9%, which is more than 1/3 of the total number of households with one person. As such, the number of young single-person households continues to increase and accounts for a significant proportion of the total single-person households. This social phenomenon is causing many changes in our lives as a whole. As more and more generations live alone, spaces are changing and the interior props and furniture that make up the space are also facing the winds of change. The furniture industry is also trying to reflect these phenomena in the planning and production of furniture of new forms and functions.
