震教徒(Shakers)是18世紀由貴格會(Quakers)分支發展而來的基督教教派,以簡樸的生活方式和實用主義聞名,他們的家具設計作品,如:夏克式搖椅(Shaker Rocking Chair),以乾淨的線條、簡潔的外形和精細的工藝為特徵,實踐震教徒對實用性、耐用性與簡樸的追求。
震教徒的作品對現代家具影響深遠,特別是在強調功能與美學統一的理念上。許多現代主義思潮及設計師,尤其是20世紀的北歐風格和包浩斯學派(the Bauhaus School),從其家具設計中汲取靈感,進一步推動了簡約與功能主義的潮流。
The Shakers were a Christian sect that branched off from the Quakers in the 18th century. Known for their austere lifestyle and pragmatic outlook, their furniture—such as the Shaker Rocking Chair—is characterized by clean lines, simple forms, and exquisite craftsmanship. These qualities exemplify the Shakers’ pursuit of utility, durability, and understated elegance.
Their work had a profound influence on modern furniture design, especially in the way it emphasizes the seamless integration of function and aesthetics. Many modernist movements and designers, including those associated with Scandinavian design and the Bauhaus School in the 20th century, drew inspiration from Shaker furniture. This, in turn, propelled the global trend toward minimalism and functionalism in design.
