In the 20th century, China has undergone dramatic changes in politics, economy, culture and so on. During this period, the study of Chinese furniture is a bridge connecting the classical Chinese furniture with the new Chinese furniture. This paper takes the animal pattern as the breakthrough point, to discover the relationship between pattern evolution and the development trend of design aesthetics, explore the evolution trend of modern Chinese wood furniture pattern, and seek the relationship between the pattern of furniture and social culture and aesthetic psychology; provide important theoretical basis and practical guidance for contemporary furniture innovation design.Based on the extensive collection of literature and materials, extensive and detailed field investigation was carried out in more than one hundred places in Shanghai, Beijing, Shenyang and Nanjing. Through careful study of hundreds of furniture patterns and analogy of research methods, The tenth century Chinese wood furniture animal pattern features are as follows:(1) the end of the Qing Dynasty, the design of furniture, animal style archaic surviving, to follow the design principles must be intentional, the symbol of the symbol is very strong;(2) In the period of the Republic of China, the design of animal patterns was based on the western furniture pattern, followed the design principles of Chinese and Western styles, the pattern design was compatible with the economy, the decoration was strong;(3) In 50-80 years, animal pattern design in the change in the forward, before the pattern design for the simple art of processing, showing a decorative pattern of simple design style;(4) In 90 years, because of the Reform and Opening, animal pattern design in the context of globalization, showing a diversified trend.Throughout the 20th century, the history of Chinese wood furniture animal patterns, we can see that the decorative pattern of animal patterns showing a complex-simple-Fan-Jane changes in the form of concrete from the abstract; in the application by the focus on decoration To the decoration and structure of the direction of both the evolution. In the light of the development trend summarized above, the author makes a detailed analysis of the social and historical reasons for the formation of this trend, aiming at the ancient Kam today, combined with the questionnaire, draw the contemporary wood furniture in the pattern designshould be followed Design Principles. Based on the above theoretical research results, the author of the innovative design practice, verify that the theory is practical in the practical operation.Through the research of this paper, we can find the connection between pattern evolution and the development trend of design aesthetics, explore the evolution trend of modern Chinese wooden furniture pattern, seek the connection between the change of furniture pattern and social culture and aesthetic psychology, Innovative design provides an important theoretical basis and practical guidance. |
