- Abstract
- This article demonstrates that cultural practices can serve as subject and methodology for designers in developing new ideas, shaping objects, and projecting the future through design. The culture of dancheongĝ€ decorative coloring on Korean buildings and itemsĝ€serves as inspiration for commentary and self-expression for the design in dress creation. Through the design process, the philosophy, cultural beliefs, and visual elements found in dancheong serve to shape the designer's intent and concept and to inspire the creative energy of the designer. The author's effort was centered on balancing the aesthetic, the expressive, and the functional as a garment. The designer fulfilled her role as a person who conveys intent, imbues a meaning, and adds value to the design. © 2009 American Association of Family and Consumer Sciences.
