Loose Furniture
Loose furniture refers to furniture that can be moved and placed in space without being restricted by space. What does movable furniture mean? It is our common daily furniture, including beds, sofas, tables and chairs, side cabinets, nightstand.
Such furniture allows you to change the look and feel of the room from time to time by just changing the placement. For instance, homes that have children would need such furniture. Initially you could get them smaller wardrobe, bed and chairs. However, as they grow, you could bring in different furniture that fit their size.
Pros: This type gives you room to experiment with different looks in your home. These come at a cheaper price when compared to their built-in counterparts as these do not require customisation.
Cons: These do not provide storage space as these are not as big as the built-in furniture. Moreover, storage space can make them heavy and difficult to move. These also can’t be customised, so what if a particular piece you liked at the store doesn’t really fit the room?
Built-in Furniture
The term build in itself refers to a device that has been installed / integrated in another device. Build in furniture designed and made based on the size of the room and the needs of the house. Build in furniture is often interpreted as “planting furniture” which means
the size and shape of furniture “fitting” with the space where it is placed. It does give the impression of furniture planted into it.
Build in Furniture include a planting cabinet TV, a decoration cabinet that is permanently embedded in the wall of room. For the determination of Build in Furniture, it’s almost the same as Loose Furniture by relying on your references and imagination for the desired design. Don’t get too carried away with good design, but prioritize the function for Build In Furniture itself.
If you want a furniture build in, you have to designed the design first or adjust your desires to the interior design. It is different from loose furniture (removable furniture or freestanding) which can be directly bought in furniture stores. Although initially troublesome, there are many benefits that you can get by use this type of furniture, especially for those of you who have small spaces, build in furniture is the ideal choice to maximize space use.
