Research On Gottfried Semper's Interior Decoration Concept

Gottfried Semper was a 19th-century German architect and architectural theorist.As the founder of the development of Western architectural theory,many modernist designers' ideas were influenced by him,such as Adolf Loss,Walter Gropius,etc.In addition to the well-known architectural practice,Semper's most outstanding achievement is also reflected in his architectural theory,and his architectural theory contains a large number of interior decoration concepts—surface decoration theory,color decoration method,weaving method,etc.These are closely related to modern interior design,and its far-reaching impact on modern design is worthy of our consolidation and exploration in combination with practice.This thesis is a discussion of the historical value and practical significance of Semper's idea,looking forward to bringing some ideas to the solution of contemporary design problems.The social and cultural background of Germany in the 19 th century brought a subtle influence on Semper's growth,and the cultural influence was deeply rooted in the bone marrow and determined the formation and development of Semper's theory of thought.Development has accumulated spiritual and formal strength.The multi-disciplinary context of linguistics,archeology,and anthropology gave Semper a way of thinking about different dimensions of his architectural theory,which made his architectural theory show different characteristics in different periods.Semper's architectural theory has derived many concepts related to modern interior decoration.The interior decoration concept also brings certain practical significance to the practice of modern interior design.Semper's theory of thought is influential.Many concepts in his theory not only lay a solid foundation for the development of modern design,but also affect many designers led by Loos.However,when Semper's theory of thought showed groundbreaking,there was also a limitation.It was found that the latter was not to deny the former,but to supply it dialectically so that we could fully understand Semper.So we can combine the spirit of the times to discover the wisdom and flash points in Semper's interior decoration concept.
