How do I start designing and making my own furniture? I don't know how to draw. I've never worked with woods.

Frasier's furniture for the most part pretty hard to make. If you can get your hands on a lot of veneer sheets and can work out how to build a mold you could make the Eames recliner with some difficulty. Try shelving first I guess, that's pretty straightforward. Or get something on making shaker style furniture, that's all about ease of manufacture, hand manufacturing and ergonomics.

draw the components separately on graph paper, furniture does not require complicated designs

Fun fact it is easier to build furniture than it is not to build furniture. At the core furniture is just places to put things or objects to sit on. Go buy a half sheet of plywood and a couple of 8ft 2x4s and build a chair. You got tools?
