Research on the Huxiang Culture Elements Applied in the Smoked Bamboo Furniture Design

Abstract:

The green environmental protection furniture products with local characteristics are increasingly attached attention.Smoked bamboo, a kind of new green material, has the potential to make furniture, and the Huxiang Culture which is rich in human and unique in its own region. The combination of these two can create new furniture. Based on design material of Smoked Bamboo, it researched how to apply Huxiang Culture elements into the design of Smoked Bamboo furniture to create new furniture with flavor of Huxiang regional culture from the three aspects of Xiangxi tujia brocade, Mawangdui lacquer ware and Xiangxi Diaojiao building. This Research in this field can vary the species of furniture products to meet the people's different needs and offer reference for other regional characteristic culture elements applied in furniture design.
