Characters Of Mongolian Traditional Decorative Elements And Research Of Their Application In Modern Tnterior Design

Today the world is living in an information era, developing and changing rapidly. Under the developing trends, it is doubtless a new task for maintaining the variety and sustainability of traditional cultures after going through modernization, international and ideological trend.The traditional Mongolian figures are the important component part of the Mongolian traditional cultures, the visual arts form of showing Mongolian thoughts and feelings and cultural life, and the traditional formative arts treasury sedimented and accumulate from a long developing process of history. The nomadic life-style and order have been changed into visual forms, by ways of figures, with both practical function of beautifying life and transmitting information and aesthetic consciousness of showing needs of spirits and feelings. In this paper the aesthetic features have been summed up through regulating and studying Mongolian visual forms of figures and formative features, connecting with Mongolian life custom and religions belief ----the traditional cultural factors.I took"circle"as point of contact to study its formative views and methods and to probe into the position of the"circle"in a legacy of history and real customs and folkways, and mainly introduced a historical origin and development and today's styles of traditional Mongolian figures, and studied, systematically and completely, its formative features, shapes and ornament by using architecture, garment and utensils as typical material.I concentrated mainly on the aesthetic features of traditional Mongolian figures, at the same time, on the historical process of exchanging and mixing with traditional figures from Han and other minority nationalities as well as foreign nations, and objectively analyzed the present situation of traditional Mongolian figures and predicted and looked forward to the development trend by combing with historical trace.A comparative method between vertical (historical process) and horizontal (with other nations traditional figures) has been taken in this paper, with which accumulated cultural spirit with long Mongolian history has been refined.Mongolian is a nationality who is keen about figures and good at creating figures and with them to express their feelings. The living style of nomadic is to take"motion"as a center, yet this doesn't affect their loving and seeking the figure art----the visual art form, steady and fixed. I lived on the Mongolian plateau from my childhood and grown up in a strong national atmosphere of Mongolian culture, therefore, I have a deep understanding about it, which is my first cause to write this paper.
