Furniture: Furniture Systems Comparative Testings

 

Overview

After completing the evaluations of the system, the designer may want to test the performance of the systems to check out how each system meet the clients needs in terms of space requirements, work surface requirements, storages, and future growth potentials. This will give the designer more information before going into rating of the systems.
