Application of Traditional Chinese Decorative Patterns in Ceramics Design

Abstract:

As an important part of traditional Chinese culture, traditional Chinese decorative patterns, to a great extent, symbolise local customs as well as social, political and economic circumstances of China. Ceramics is of both use value and aesthetic value. Decorative patterns facilitate the latter of the two as a main means. Nowadays, designers are facing a great challenge of how to inherit the aesthetics and the spirit of traditional Chinese decorative patterns and how to apply modern design concepts to contemporary ceramics design. This paper investigates the origins, implications, categorizations and application examples of traditional Chinese decorative patterns in both ancient and modern ceramics designs. Based on the investigation, the paper strives to demonstrate the essence of traditional Chinese decorative patterns, enhance the charm of modern ceramics design, as well as to explore new cultural added value of traditional Chinese decorative patterns.
