It is wise to plan furniture architectual ideas with a designer or even a decorator. That way you can get furniture or lights that have a personal touch because they are engineered and even self made. That is more common for architects who work in smaller companies.
The biggest furnitureinvestment place would be deffinitely the kitchen. After that comes the living room and the bedroom. The choices have to be made about which furniture and other elements should be used in the last two. There are different technics and rules for that so it would be good to consult a professional architect. Also the question about which windows to use is an important one and it would be good to combine the windows with other elements in the room. Final furniture will be a three-dimensional work.
Nowadays there are many new materials used by furniture architects. For example high-tempered disks for tables, new varnishes that give wooden furniture a better look and protect it. That is also a good exercise for a designer because every home or working place is different and the used colors and materials have to match all the other elements in the room that is why development is so important.
Furniture parts are mostly from different countries that keeps the prices lower. If you order from a bigger company and their catalog you will get the furniture in details and have to put it together yourself.
