What are some examples of furniture architecture that prioritize affordability?

1. Flat-pack furniture - IKEA is a prime example of flat-pack furniture that prioritizes affordability. The furniture is designed to be easily assembled and disassembled, reducing shipping costs and making it more affordable for consumers.

2. Multi-functional furniture - These are pieces of furniture that serve more than one purpose. For example, a bed with built-in storage or a coffee table that can be converted into a dining table. These furniture pieces are designed to maximize space and functionality, making them an affordable choice for smaller homes or apartments.

3. Repurposed furniture - Old furniture pieces can be repurposed to create new and affordable pieces. For example, an old door can be turned into a dining table, or an old dresser can be converted into a bathroom vanity.

4. Minimalist furniture - Minimalist furniture has simple designs and uses fewer materials, making it a more affordable choice. They are often made with natural materials like wood, which is both affordable and durable.

5. DIY furniture - DIY furniture allows consumers to create their own furniture pieces at a low cost. There are many online tutorials and websites that provide step-by-step instructions on how to create furniture from inexpensive materials like pallets or reclaimed wood.
