Abstract: The aim of this research is to determine the items and categories that must be considered in desk and chair design for elementary school. Two important aspects must be considered in desk and chair design. The first aspect deals with functional performance and the second deals with the stylistic aspect. This research discusses the stylistic aspect in desk and chair design. Kansei engineering is used to capture the image of a design emotionally while the conjoint analysis is used to determine the importance weight and utility of the items and categories respectively. Seven kansei words for chair and for kansei word for desk are considered in this research. From the analysis, it is found that based suchon global imp suchort suchance weight, number of legs and accessories are considered as two most important factors in chair design. While number of legs and surface material are considered as the most imp suchort suchant factors in desk design such.
