A cantilever is a structural element that projects horizontally and is supported only at one end. This supporting end is typically anchored to a vertical surface such as a wall or column. Cantilevers are employed in both furniture design and architecture to create floating or overhanging structures. In architecture, cantilevers can be used for balconies, canopies, and bridges, while in furniture, they are seen in designs for chairs, tables, and shelves, creating a sense of openness and defying traditional support methods. The structural integrity of a cantilever depends on its material strength and the anchorage at the support.
