| dc.description.abstract | The present investigation on “Restructuring conventional motifs for Home Textiles” was conducted during 2014-16 with the objectives of restructuring and digitizing conventional Assamese textile motifs and rendering the digitized motifs on different Home Textiles by using CAD software. From the total 35 collected motifs, almost fifty per cent of the motifs (17) were sorted by the researcher keeping in view the suitability for Home Textiles. Among the 17 motifs, the six motifs identified by textile experts were restructured into contemporary form by using ‘CorelDraw- X8’. These six motifs along with other conventional motifs were arranged in different layouts by repeating the motifs on ‘Adobe Photoshop’ for producing variegated design patterns. Both contemporary as well as conventional Assamese textile motifs were rendered using CAD software on 4 classes of Home Textiles viz., window dressing, soft furnishing, wall covering and floor covering, a total 45 virtual images of Home Textiles were developed by rendering technique. Thirty each teachers and students of the college of Rural Home Science, Dharwad evaluated the 45 virtual images of Home Textiles. It was found that the naturalistic, geometrical and stylized motifs used on Assamese clothing are suitable for Home Textiles hence could be well applied. Majority of the respondents preferred naturalistic motifs i.e., floral and bird are mostly suitable for window dressing as well soft furnishing whereas geometrical and stylized motifs for wall and floor coverings. The respondents expressed that the study throws light on revival of tribal and mythological symbols, an inspiration to textile designer, home decor, weaver, printer and such other allied industries who could venture in the area of rendering the images on variegated textiles, a foundation for the business. | en_US |
