it's the "plano" part which has got me foxed, talking about how much weight chairs can resist-see context below, thanks!
En esta línea se realizaron diversos análisis y la mejora de los resultados era bastante notable, aunque no suficiente. Hay que tener en cuenta que cualquier rediseño no debe centrarse únicamente en una zona, sino que se debe acompañar por las zonas contiguas para evitar *cambios bruscos de plano*.

sudden changes of surface/of flat surfaces
Encontré este enlace de un diseñador de muebles, en el que mencionan el diseño de sillas y el término "plano". Por el contexto, deduzco que hablan de una superficie plana que es el área de la silla de mayor dimensión, normalmente el asiento, pero que en algunas sillas contemporáneas es todo una pieza que continúa en el respaldo y a veces, los apoyabrazos.

It's the lingo that the furniture designers use, so easy to confuse with other things, like a blueprint, or the idomatic expression "de plano". Thanks for the agree - teju :)

No, Susy, "plane" perhaps the plane of the seat of the chair. But I'd like more CONTEXT (as always!).

Jackie Bowman
: Definitely close, Henry. Seems to mean something like ‘sudden perpendicular shifts’.

utterly abrupt changes
"de plano" is a phrase meaning "flatly" or "totally"...

sudden shifts in drawing plans
Talking about the blueprints.
Actually, it also seems possible that they're talking about
"sudden shifts in perspective" (another use of *plano*), but then that's really still in reference to the blueprints/drawing plans ....

abrupt changes in design
...to avoid clashing designs in adjoining areas, the plans should not be focused solely on the area being redesigned, but should take into account adjoining areas....
