Whether in inheriting and developing Chinese traditional culture, the creation of eco-living and working environment, or in the sustainable use of resources on furniture materials, it can be of great practical significance. With the new technological trends, bamboo furniture design also faces new challenges and opportunities. Nowadays, the new design concepts and ideas are emerging continuously. For facing the continuously needs of modern life, bamboo furniture industry should also follow the development trend of the times, and the innovation must be on the basis of traditional design.Under the background of innovative design on bamboo furniture with the trend of green design, the study took bamboo furniture and wood furniture as research subjects, through the comparative analysis, summarized the similarities and differences in design of bamboo furniture and wood furniture, took the positive impact which wood furniture played on bamboo furniture, and in the light of the background to guide the innovative design of bamboo furniture.First, the paper briefly elaborated on course of the development on bamboo furniture and wood furniture and the category of furniture. The thesis started from the comparison on the material properties of bamboo and wood, through the comparative analysis on the material structure of bamboo and wood and on physical characteristics, and summarized the similarities and differences in their material properties. Then the thesis had a further comparative analysis on the features of bamboo furniture and wood furniture, which from the aspects of modeling features, color and texture characteristics, to structure and characteristics, and also summarized the similarities and differences in their features. And continued to deepen, through comparative analysis on the modern development of bamboo furniture and wood furniture, to compare the similarities and differences in their modern development, so that to provide guidance and references to the innovative design of bamboo furniture.Eventually, the thesis drawn constructive comments which had guiding significance for the innovative design of bamboo furniture from the comparative analysis, and through the deep analysis on the problems that innovative design of bamboo furniture faced, then discussed innovative design of bamboo furniture on advanced, times, nationality, and modernity.
