Abstract :This paper explores the Design for Disassembly (DfD) methodological approach in the furniture design process. Design for Disassembly is a product design strategy that enables a product to be disassembled for easier maintenance allowing cost-effective recovery of reusable components and materials, which are important for optimizing products for reuse and recycling at the end of their life cycle. The modular concept further enhances this approach by allowing for interchangeable parts enabling customers to repair and upgrade their furniture without needing a complete replacement. Furthermore, this paper provides an overview of Design for Disassembly approaches on furniture development as an effective tool for significant reduction for new raw materials using recycled mahogany material that result from adopting these practices. The main aim of this research is to support the current and future development in the field of disassembly, promoting a more sustainable utilization of resources, contributing to a circular economy and minimizing the environmental impact of furniture manufacturing.Keywords : design for disassembly, sustainable waste management, resource efficiency, modular furniture
