“…The dissolution of aesthetic boundaries, where former differences between traditional media have been erased is a reflection of a society and culture where all distinctions have been eroded, and where art itself has been displaced. 62 The notion of displacement that takes place in the conceptual space of media brings a new dynamic to the discussion, as this becomes a theoretical space of risk where moving across, through or between its interstices can be aesthetically dangerous and socially emancipatory, opening new perspectives by displacing the old ones.…”

This study aims to find out how designers create meaning during the design development stage. This study explores 14 dance notations and steps and how they can be used in furniture design to create shape and meaning. It looks at how to use these movements in the design of furniture. In this work, semiotics is used to talk about how "sign," "object," and "interpretant" work together. As a result, several prototypes are designed, built, and tested to figure out the final design's shape and purpose. It can be concluded that using parts of traditional cultural dance helps create meaning and value in the context of furniture design projects.
