Life Cycle Design Of Furniture

Along with the rapid economic development, it brings huge pressure for environment, environmental pollution is more and more serious, resources are also increasingly sense; when people's economic level to be able to improve, it makes fast becoming obsolete, products'life cycle is being cut short; Furniture as a kind of industrial products, when it is being produced, it cause that pollutants are emissions and energy is consumed, furniture products be quickly renewed, so we should find a way to reduce harm for environment, and ease the pressure of environment.Life cycle design (LCD) is a kind of design method, which based on the design of the system, with the environmental protection as core, its purpose is to make the design of products from the raw material acquisition to scrap, and eventually the whole life cycle disposal process firstly meet that the smallest environment pollution and consumes resources at least, to prevent the pollution from the source, there is important meaning in today's industrial products and production. Furniture as a kind of industrial products, it caused pollution in the process of production. In furniture product whole life cycle, should try to reduce the environmental contamination, we should analysis to consider problem whit life cycle design ideas. The paper summarizes that the life cycle design concept, influence and significance, and aspects how to use the life cycle thought to furniture design life cycle, from material, structure, process, packaging, sales and reclaim.Firstly, the paper analysis the meaning of the life cycle of furniture design for consumers, enterprise and society with Maslow's hierarchy theory of needs, SWOT analysis, economic externalities strategy and the recycling economy. When we choice materials, and analysis material characteristics of the life cycle design for furniture, and screen the materials; The design requirements that contracted style and simple structure, and compare popular style and structure in furniture market, and analyzes the style and structure's significance of the environment. There is largely influence for environment in furniture production stage, analysis of pollution, and optimizes production processes to reduce pollution; In packaging design, we should choose reasonable packaging style, and choose the environmental protection packing materials; In sales design, we should analysis green furniture market supply and demand, and implementation of4P green marketing strategy; Finally, we should analysis that status of furniture recovery, and propose the method of furniture recycling.By life cycle design of furniture, furniture reduces the environmental impact and consumption of energy, and furniture has excellent environmental characteristics. Environmentally-friendly furniture is good with health of consumers. By life cycle design of furniture, company optimizes production process, improves Utilization of material, and reduces consumption of energy and production costs. It helps to improve the corporate image in heart of the public and improves soft power.
