A REVIEW ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF OFFICE FURNITURE DURING THE ERA OF MODERNISM

Abstract

In the new order, there have been radical changes in all branches of art. Many art movements
and styles have been born, but none have been as permanent as 'Modernism'. The philosophy
of the modernism movement that emerged as a result of the French Revolution incorporates
simplicity, forms of nature, intelligibility, accessibility and egalitarianism.In modernism, it was
desired that the economic classification was completely abolished and that all people could
benefit from art and its products.
With the development of technological activities, new business lines began to emerge, thus
increasing the number of office spaces. The proliferation of office spaces has also developed
the industry of office furniture items. In this new sector, famous artists of the modernism era
made office furniture designs that were talked about too much and are still for sale today.
In this article, the features of office furniture in the modernism era are discussed first. It is
followed by a discussion of the development of office furniture in the processof modernism
based on the office furniture that represented a school at that time, and themovie “Play
Time”directedby famous director Jaques Tatti.
