Bitewe n'intebe yikubye ubwayo yahindutse intebe isanzwe, kuburyo habaye uburyo butandukanye nubuhanga bwo gukora. Kuberako intebe yikubye idafite ibimenyetso byinshi byimbaraga nicyubahiro, binaganisha kumajyambere yimikorere mishya nibishushanyo bishya. Mu mpera z'ikinyejana cya 19, intebe yikubye yabaye ibicuruzwa byashushanywaga na utilitarians, kandi uburyo butandukanye no gukoresha imyanya byagaragaye.

Hamwe nubwiyongere bwibicuruzwa byikururwa kandi byikururwa, inganda zitanga ibintu bito kandi byoroheje kugirango bikore ibikoresho byo kuzenguruka kugirango bihuze nikirere gitandukanye. Abantu barashobora kubona intebe zinyuranye ahantu hose mukambi, kwidagadura ku mucanga, ibirori bya siporo nibindi. Nubwoko bwintebe ihuza ningeso zose nibikenewe. Intebe zizunguruka zirashobora gukoreshwa kumeza yintebe nintebe, muri sinema no mu makinamico Intego nyamukuru yo gukora intebe shingiro ni ugutanga ikiruhuko gito no kuzinga (no gukusanya) byoroshye. Intebe zizunguruka zahindutse igice cyibikoresho.
Intebe igezweho igezweho yakozwe nyuma yiperereza ryinshi ryibiganiro mbonezamubano no kuganira kuri tekiniki: nyuma yo kubona amashusho mu nganda (THONET), hamwe n’igitekerezo cy’Abadage Bauhaus, igishushanyo cy’intebe kizunguruka cyatangiye kwiyongera mu myaka ya 1965-75.
