조선시대의 조각보 이미지를 응용한 넥타이 디자인 제안

Abstract

Jogakbo were common in Korea during the Joseon period. It has unique aesthetic and artistic values. This study applied images of such Jogakbo to designs of neckties, which are an essential item of men's formal suits. Theoretical research was done on artifacts and literature about Joseon Jogakbo. The resulting images were applied to necktie designs in both Photoshop simulations and actual neckties. This study seeks to maintain the identity of traditional Korean culture and help determine appropriate directions of Korean design for the future. More specifically, it suggests necktie designs that can maintain and emphasize Korean images. The patterns extracted from Jogakbo images were defined and applied to necktie designs initially in Photoshop simulations. Based on the simulations, seven transfer-dyed polyester neckties were made. The first design is based on the designs of square Jogakbo; the second on those of triangular Jogakbo; the third, fourth, and fifth on those of free-style Jogakbo; the sixth on those of pinwheel-style Jogakbo; and the seventh on those of dongsimgyeol (traditional knot)-style Jogakbo. By bringing traditional cultural elements into everyday life and commercializing them, this study is intended to recognize artistic values of Korea's unique traditional crafts, apply them to the designs of various fashion items, and thereby recreate and reinforce the value of traditional crafts. Efforts should be made on an ongoing basis to develop designs with traditional craft and cultural elements.
