I live in Kazakhstan and I think here in my country people usually buy furniture when they are moving to a new place, a new flat or a house. So they need to buy everything to their new place where they are going to live. Or when they are having a repairment at their current accommodation and their furniture has gotten old and run down, so they buy a new one. Usually I think the people who live in this place decide themselves what kind of furniture, what kind of design they want. However, it’s becoming more widespread to higher designers that will create a full design for your house or your flat. And according to their design, you will buy the furniture they decided to create. And I think traditional style is pretty common but modern style is becoming more widespread.

They need to buy everything for their new place where they are going to live. They also buy new furniture when they are renovating their current accommodation, and their furniture has gotten old and run down.
