“…In the Czech-based laboratories within this article, by comparison, the scope of corresponding tasks was relatively modest, as our project had been conceived significantly less generously, due to the limited amount of materials. The associated development, refining, and (to a limited extent) basic tests of children's or purpose-specific furniture are all exposed in the research by Zhang et al and Jai-ai et al [59,60], with the former outlining the role of artificial intelligence at the diverse stages of the furniture designing, manufacturing, and verification procedures; such an approach is a blueprint for the next phases of our efforts, as it provides novel baseline ideas to rethink the testing process.…”

Using modern methodologies in the sectors and subareas of industrial design, where they currently find only marginal application, brings a potential for interrelating technology, the arts, and fine arts. To illustrate this, we present model procedures and options for designing a versatile storage cube that integrates magnetic structural components facilitating easy and quick assembly. In addition to being an item of real furniture, portable and readily convertible into a table or soft stool, the cube supports children’s creative games and helps to develop their overall skills in the present-day household and in pre-primary and primary education. The basic material rests in birch plywood, and the joint edges between the individual walls are covered with smooth plastic guards manufactured via additive 3D printing from corn fodder-based filament. Thus, an interesting structural detail, namely, plastic edges, is generated, reinforcing the entire product. The walls comprise decorative, multicolor, polyurethane foam-based elements that can be removed and reinserted. Regarding the manufacturing technology, CNC machining and laser shaping are widely employed on the main parts, and the plastic edges are 3D-printed. In terms of the original idea, the product responds to customer requirements within a specific design project. The robustness and stability tests have proved that the cubes fully satisfy the relevant standards.

“…Furniture products are not Fast-Moving Goods, and their durability and comfort are also important purchase indicators for consumers (Weiguo 2014;Phuah et al 2022). Safety is not only reflected in materials and structure, but also reasonable clearance and anti-toppling measures to prevent injuries in children (Salvador 2015;Zhang and Li 2022). Aesthetic evaluation of children's furniture often involves adjectives, such as artistic, interesting, and creative, but these terms do not serve as aesthetic indicators because they are influenced by the limitations of the rater.…”

The design evaluation method of furniture products was explored for modular children’s wooden storage cabinets. An evaluation model consisting of the Kano model, hierarchical analysis, and grey relational analysis is proposed. A 25-member panel of experts was involved in the development of the evaluation guidelines and the scoring of the program. The expert group used the KJ method to obtain evaluation guidelines for modular children’s wooden furniture that met the requirements of the hierarchical analysis method and screened the functional indicators through 103 validated questionnaires for the Kano model. The evaluation guidelines of modularized children’s wooden storage cabinets were thus obtained, which are both comprehensive and targeted. Then, hierarchical analysis and grey relational analysis were combined to select the solution with the highest grey weighted correlation result as the best solution. The feasibility of the grey comprehensive evaluation method, which combines subjective preference and objective empowerment, in the field of furniture was confirmed through the practice of selecting the best of the three modular children’s wooden storage cabinet design solutions, and the evaluation preference of the modular children’s wooden storage cabinet was uncovered. The design model provides an innovative evaluation tool for children’s furniture manufacturers to optimize their sales strategies.

“…In the process of emotional design, children's furniture design needs to consider the application of artificial intelligence design concept, to meet the rapid growth of children's physical and mental needs. Through discussing the necessity and design principle of the application of artificial intelligence in children's furniture from the perspectives of society, children, and development trends, it can lay a foundation for interesting and multifunctional children's furniture design (Zhang and Li 2022).…”

In this work, kindergarten toy storage, defined as the construction area, puzzle area, scientific observation area, and role-playing area, and the toy characteristics of the four areas, was studied. Interviews and grounded theory were used to observe and summarize the behavioral needs of 3- to 6-year-old children and preschool teachers. Analytical hierarchy process (AHP) was used to analyze behavioral needs. It was concluded that the kindergarten toy locker optimization was designed to improve storage efficiency. However, the current layout of kindergarten toy lockers is chaotic, and children cannot efficiently and autonomously take toys from toy lockers. The best toy locker layout scheme was selected through an eye tracking experiment. The subjects were all 3- to 6-year-old children, a total of 30 people. By comparing the data such as hot spot map, trajectory map, area of the first viewpoint, and gaze time when children observed different lockers layout during the experiment, the optimal layout scheme of kindergarten toy lockers was comprehensively analyzed. Optimizing the zoning, classification, and storage of kindergarten toys is conducive to improving the efficiency of children’s independent storage, creating a kindergarten game and teaching environment conducive to children’s development.
