碩士 === 國立臺中科技大學 === 商業設計系碩士班 === 104 === Since the rapid decline in forests, caused by the excessive deforestation, many types of timbers, as people waste them recklessly, have become rare and precious these days. However, the use of various timber types in the market is now replaced by the use of single type, which quickly develops into a material with high economic values, but needs replacing periodically due to its poor durability. In the market, solid wood furniture can be seen less and less, while its warm and preserving characters are also disappearing. As a result of this, this design aims to represent the beauty of solid wood furniture in diversification, and also revives storage Cabinets. Although there are already a number of functions of storage Cabinets available, as the limited living space in our everyday life, this has been the motif for this design to incorporate with the function of boxes to create a new portable multifunctional Cabinet. The portable Cabinet is produced with local materials by green designs, which is to search for usable natural materials in our environment, and to create a unique presentation of this design made by splicing techniques and materials found. The body of this design consists of timbers. Geometrical, simple design is to push the function of this design to the limit, and, by the way of archival and field research, the combination of portable boxes and storage Cabinets thus establishes a whole new type of portable storage designs. Since the portable storage design have broken the obsolete storage and display fashion, it has created an interactive relationship between this design and its users, and offers more personal display styles of the portable Cabinet.   This design aims to offer a series of works with regard to interior spaces, which are “Bedroom”, “Kitchen”, “Living Room” and “Multipurpose Room”, in order to satisfy the needs of different spaces and solve storage problems. Since the living space in modern cities has been unproportionally diminished, the portable Cabinet design takes the next step to solve the storage problems of medium/small sized objects in modern families, therefore the size of this portable storage Cabinet suits small families perfectly. In addition to this, the objects stored in the portable Cabinet also helps create the display effects and atmosphere. This design can also be used as a display case, which gives this portable Cabinet a multifunctional value, providing its users more perpetual experiences.
