The purpose of the master's thesis is to design and construct multifunctional children's furniture in cooperation with the company Satler d.o.o. We made an overview of children's furniture from Slovenian manufacturers and conducted a survey where we were interested in parents' opinions about children's furniture, and their wishes and needs when choosing such furniture. Based on the survey, we came to the conclusion that buyers primarily want safe, high-quality and functional furniture. They are interested in a healthy living environment and as well as in furniture that grows with the child. We have designed two different pairs of designs of a children’s table and chair. Both have the ability to “grow” with the child, by adjusting the height of the seat of the chair and the height of the tabletop. One pair was made with metal fittings and the other without. The conceptual design, modelling and completion of the workshop drawings of the children's furniture are carried out in the SolidWorks program, according to the principles of ergonomics and anthropometry, using materials for children's furniture and standards governing the field.
