Furniture design has evolved, from its humble utilitarian beginnings, into a form of decorative art for all types of real estate investment. Furniture designers are no longer limited to the functionality of these movable objects that were created for our comfort and enjoyment. Designing furniture now reflects, in addition to their functional roles, the different cultural and religious orientations of people.
Furniture has been used throughout the history of mankind, beginning from the period when non-nomadic cultures started developing. Furniture made of stone adorned the dwellings of the Neolithic people. Through the different stages of history, furniture has evolved as determined by the culture of the people and the type of materials that were available during each period.

Asian Influence
Asian furniture is a class of its own. Some of the best furniture designs were influenced by traditions from China, India, Pakistan, Japan, Mongolia, and Korea. Heavy lacquers characterized most of the Chinese furniture while Japan introduced the minimalist concept of furniture making. Most types of furniture can be found in Brittany Properties Philippines.
Recently, other countries in Asia, especially Southeast Asia, have developed their own concept of furniture design. While heavily influenced by Chinese and Indian traditions, furniture designers have incorporated modern concepts with local culture and traditions, at the same time utilizing local indigenous materials.
Filipino Furniture Design
The Philippine furniture scenery used to be populated by pieces that were western in design. American and European furniture could be found in almost every Filipino home, even in houses owned by the Filipino-Chinese community, and basically in any type of real estate investment here in our country. Western-designed furniture was the standard of opulence and luxury for many years. However, there is now a growing trend of patronizing homegrown designs that utilize locally sourced materials. It’s about time, for our furniture can definitely hold its own against others in the international furniture scene.
