[Abstract] China industrial design localization, you need a
combination of traditional Chinese culture. This requires that industrial
design in the mix of Western science and culture at the same time, but also
full of oriental charm and philosophical wisdom. The article on the excavation
of ancient Chinese idea of creation order, the Chinese contemporary industrial
design in order to provide some new ideas and concepts, the formation of the
national characteristics of the industrial design.
[Key words] Industrial design localization; Traditional Chinese
culture; National characteristics
I. Introduction
Industrial design companies in China more and
more attention, however, in terms of its level, due to economic, technical,
personnel and other factors, most still in imitation. Since the 1980s, China
has gradually increased the importance of industrial design and investment.
After 20 years of development, China has established a design and development
of industrial forming processes and the education system. But can not be
avoided, our design capabilities and the level is still relatively low level in
the world, far from being able to hit the world market of design, local design
pincer attack on something difficult, faltering.
This
result is caused by many factors. The objective course of development of
China's industrial design is shorter, generally weak industrial base;
subjective idea of China's outdated design, lack of language. But the most fundamental
reason is that we do not have summed up a set of design ideas with Chinese
characteristics. Therefore, in order to promote industrial design localization,
we need to learn from the experience of developed countries on the basis of
industrial design to explore the essence of China's traditional culture of
creation, from the creation of this nation's traditional culture to draw
nutrients, summed up a set of feasible designs with Chinese characteristics
concept.
China has five thousand years of culture, the
traditional design-rich, contemporary designer can provide valuable historical
thinking, we have to carefully dig and explore, and strive to have a guide from
which summed up the design.
II.The natural tendency of the creation of traditional
Chinese culture
Chinese Taoism advocates "Heaven",
"return to basics", where "day" that is nature, nature is
the nature of heaven and earth, advocates should Sunchon the line, not
artificially against nature. 'I' say: "Act, the law of the heavens, France
Road, Imitation of Nature." Can be seen from this passage, I believe that
all things are generated by the channel, while the Road is the almost naturally,
that is, there are certain laws. People to create objects are emulate Road, is
to follow the natural self-evident.
In the
design concept in China, good design should be as natural as live free, agile
change. The theory is based on "Heaven", "smooth things natural"
creation should be "simple and the world exemplifies the struggle the
United States." Is the so-called "Great Music Sound",
"invisible elephant", "the most delicate, if clumsy." The
relationship between man and nature that is not antagonistic, but intimate,
fusion of interoperability. This is the humanism and the West is very
different. Western emphasis on the rational principles of science, they
re-interpret, re-analysis, ways of thinking with the individual, intermittent,
structural, combination. But in modern society, the West, "everything
becomes possible" the dominant ideology in environmental degradation and
ecological crisis in the context of the principles of humanity in front of the
reality of it hit the barrier. Thus, more proof of China's traditional culture
and way of thinking has a rational core.
Chinese garden art garden is a treasure of the
world and enjoy high reputation. Chinese gardens usually the natural curve of
the composition, winding, winding paths, rarely symmetrical structure. Whether
in the construction of the cloth Diego mountain stone built pavilion made of water, are naturally free to order to
pursue, "although made by the people, Wan since the days open" effect.
See the magic in the flat in the pursuit, since the natural place was
ingenuity. We contrast the traditional Chinese culture creation, where
"Heaven coherent" design ideas to the modern design provides both
inspiration.
1.Modern
design to be "smooth things natural," respect for objective law.
Inspiration from nature, to maintain the natural facial products. Methods in
the design of respect for the material as far as possible the performance of
their own property, while respecting the people (users) of the natural and
social attributes.
2.Establish a "universal harmony"
design concept, build a harmonious environment. Coordinator - machine -
environment system; a coordinated scientific, artistic, economic, social and
other aspects of the relationship between industrial design, sustainable
development for the purpose and objective view of Western culture, the
competition cut-off day served the spirit of things. Believe that China's
industrial design can be positive results in the absorption of Western
countries on the basis of the formation of industrial design with Chinese
characteristics.
III. The creation of traditional Chinese culture,
minimalist fashion
Chinese
culture advocates indifferent quiet, Elegant quiet aesthetic taste, for the
United States objects to simple, smooth material to promote natural, cultural
ornaments against the excessive carving. Taoist Lao Tzu is a "song are
all, in vain are straight, hollow the surplus, the new spacious, ranging from
more to more than confusion." Is said. This is the master of the German
modernist design • Mies van der Rohe "less is more" minimalist
interpretation of the prophet.
In
the creation culture, this idea has been fully reflected. By Ming-style
furniture
, for example, it is the history of ancient Chinese furniture of the
highest achievements of the branch. It is sober and elegant style, design
simplified properly, has a very high artistic value.
Ming-style
furniture, concise and simple, elegant and fresh, showing an attitude of
"natural to the carving," the laid-back tolerance, Ming-style
furniture completely tenon joint structure according to different parts of the
design corresponding tenon joint, it is natural yet structured, but no lack of
generosity compact. In addition, the Ming-style furniture little decoration,
vigorous concise, flowing lines of modern functionalism and minimalist design
reflects the essence of the prophet.
China's
traditional culture is a minimalist aesthetic ideal based on personality, is to
promote people in the dominant position in the material world, to promote human
use things, positive things for men's world view, which contains the self-esteem,
peace of truth and goodness thought to have been infected with the modern,
contemporary designer worth attention. We should learn from China's traditional
culture nutrients, in material things first, business competitive economy,
"has served heavy objects," simple simple design will bring an
Elegant, quiet and fresh air.
In modern design, we can not pursue that
modernism's rigid form follows function argument, it can not pursue the form of
joking tradition. China's creation culture "goodness with music",
"gentle", beautiful and quality of each other, function and form of
harmony and unity of the Creator Zhang, the Chinese designers have been
praiseworthy, we want to combine modern design creation of China culture, and
thus abandon and curing into a new national style.
IV.The creation of traditional Chinese culture
"view of things to take as" Creator Zhang
"View
of things to take as" is important to understand the world of ancient
China one of the methods to study the ancient art of thinking is bound to the
concept of industrial design culture today the formation of development of
reference.
"View
of things to take as" in "view of things' that is, look at all
things," taking as "the internal law of refining that is taking deep
spiritual content. Ancients' view of things to take as "a way to observe
the phenomenon of objective thinking, analysis of its internal law, and to the
specific form of its clever apparent.
"View
of things to take as" way of thinking is reflected in the creation can be
summarized as being the "Italian system shaped to form intended to
take." China does not count them out with a number of superb design of the
craft, such as the Qin Dynasty square hole round coin's design, is to examine
the ancient coins in circulation as the economic and social stability of the
essential elements of the universe in the original draw "hemispherical
dome." thinking and design. Then porcelain, for example, in the creation
of sustenance feelings, reflecting the spirit of the ancient Chinese art of
porcelain making the culmination of. When the porcelain is plainer than plain,
minimal decoration, the "beauty With" Yu of the cut even. Descendants
assessment porcelain to win plain to see the clever styling to pattern pieces
known, smooth shape, texture, pure, like diamonds in the rough. Bing Ji which
celadon jade, white like snow, like silver, to show the natural beauty is not
applied Prostitute. This is elegant and refined ancient pursuit of the perfect
embodiment of Rhyme.
With the new science and technology become
more sophisticated and widely used, national traditional culture in the
continuous impact of modern civilization by making differences in people's
lives in the reduced, in the way of life of people around the same trend. At
the same time, countries of the design style has become
"international." In this case, culture as the development of
industrial design elements can not be ignored, people prefer the product of
deep-seated spiritual culture, pay more attention to the shape of the image
conveyed by the product's inherent ideological and cultural. More
post-modernist design embodied in showing people the taste of the product
concerned. "National is the world", China's modern design how to form
a unique style, I think the main is how to give the product a unique ethos.

reason for success lies in the master to give the product to a quiet, distant
Zen connotations. Zhe as good as the products in the modern conception of the
successful example of integration of the East.
"View
of things to take as" way of thinking on the formation of industrial
design culture, has an important reference. Can be used in industrial design
metaphor, suggesting, symbols, references and simulation techniques to enhance
the cultural quality of the design. This will not only enrich the designer's
language, more diversified to meet the spiritual needs of people, enhance the
quality of life. This is the solution of industrial design to absorb the
inherent cultural and spiritual heritage of the nation's good channels.
V.China's traditional culture, industrial design
concept of the bionic creation
China's
Taoism advocates "World and I, and hygiene, all things with me as a,"
"all things together, what the shorter length," and strongly praise
the heavens and the earth's natural order: "Heaven and earth often
inherent in men, and carry out the inherent sun and the moon, and stars carry
out the inherent, intrinsic group of animal men, and tree stand carry the
inherent "nature of the ancients in the transformation process is not to
conquer nature, to control nature, but nature as teacher, learn about nature,
natural hold obedience, absorbed attitude. Recalling the history of ancient
Chinese civilization, many have left the traditional creation of traces of
imitation of the natural ecology. A variety of animal forms as the prototype of
the practical utensils, such as pig-shaped pot, cattle-shaped lights,
rabbit-shaped lights, and as the Han Dynasty long letter lanterns, the whole
image is a hand-held lanterns maid, the cuff of the exhaust pipe and the inside
of the body water storage purposes, the role of smoke from the filter is an
excellent example of traditional bionic creation. Large number of instances
chronicles the lives of people outside of the natural creative imitation of
form and function, the application process. Nature gave birth to all things,
including human beings. "All things in nature, all-win method."
People in the distant years seems to recognize from the natural ecosystem to
understand that their own survival, development and progress of the essence.
However, with the rapid development of modern
industrialization, the alienation of modern civilization of mankind occurred,
mechanized mass production, in turn destroying our environment, to create our
own apathy caught trapped in the rigid mechanical products, seriously hindered
creativity, in addition, from nature, take in the natural form of bionic
products to cater to some extent the natural desire of human yearning. Based on
this fact, people began to look at the areas of bionic eyes to re-invest.
Products are man-made "second
nature", and numerous biological patterns in nature is an inexhaustible
supply of forms designer material. Nature as Teacher, in turn, can inspire the
designer's inspiration and spark ideas, learn from nature, biomorphic optimize
and integrate it into product form, you can give the product's unique aesthetic
taste and reasonable. From the modern point of view, many of the organic nature
of life, its evolution in the process of evolving in line with laws of formal
beauty of the structure, shape, color and graphics, in their process of growth
and activity is also showing a certain moment the breathtaking beauty of
modeling. Bionics from the scientific, rational point of view for the form of
material and product modeling provides the basis inspire inspired to become an
important method of product form modeling.
At
the present stage, industrial design needs based on the experiences of
developed countries to take root as soon as possible local, form a unique
national style. Chinese traditional culture, "nature" to the Creator
of nature as a teacher Zhang will give China's industrial design inspiration.
VI. Conclusion
China's traditional culture has a long history
and profound traditional Chinese culture in the thinking of the wisdom of
creation, creation principles in a modern design for the Chinese to open up a
treasure trove for reference, we should be more from the creation of
traditional Chinese culture, learn wisdom and nutrition, the Chinese industrial
design system in the deep soil of our national culture, to find a meeting
point, which allows China's traditional culture in the form fields that inheritance
and development, and continue to flourish, as soon as possible "foreign,
past serve the present" objective.
