Industrial furniture design and interior objection in consumption culture: Printed engram of Ikea

With the development of industrialization in the 19th century, the economic and social changes that took place all over the world paved the way for a new order in industry, technology and lifestyle. In line with these developments, the changes in the furniture industry have been at a level that will affect the whole world. A consumption culture has emerged and a consumer society has been formed. The emergence of mass production developed with technology has resulted in the adoption of the modular furniture concept. The concept of modular use and the rapid implementation of mass production have also shown their effect on the furniture industry, and the production and use of modular furniture has become widespread. The aim of the study is to examine the relationship between the use of domestic type industrial furniture and design trends through printed documents in parallel with technology and industrial developments, social-economic and social formations and changes. Furniture and design decisions that users use in their personal spaces, which are an indicator of their status in society, also contain a feature of social representation. Mass production furniture and the user's preferences for use in personal areas have a guiding effect on its users as a social entity. In this study, mass production furniture product designs were read in parallel with technological, social and cultural events, and different representations were examined through IKEA catalogs, which have printed engram value.
