碩士 === 國立臺灣師範大學 === 設計研究所 === 99 === Fractal means "broken" or "fractured." Since Mandelbrot published the "Fractal Geometry in 1975," the Fractal Theory has not only unraveled the pattern and nature of human's complicated and irregular structure, but also explained many phenomenons in nature. A fractal has the following features: Self-Similarity, Fractional Dimension, Chaotic Dynamics, and Unlimited Expansion. Fractals are everywhere. They exist in nature, interact with the living space of human being, and decide the uniqueness of every object. Fractal Theory can apply and refer to many different spheres. It is used to be applied in the information and technology world. Although there are some scholars using the fractals on Product Design and Visual Communication Design in the design sphere, in Poster Design with which people often contact, there are few researches about applying the fractal images. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to discuss how to use fractal images, which can be seen everywhere, in Poster Design, to search for a new opportunity and chance of using new images, and to find a possibility to use Fractal Theory in Graphic Design. The method of this research is finding the way of utilizing fractal images in Poster Design through analyzing Fractal Theory and researches that are related, and using tools, such as the fractal-generating software, to design and create the method of the experiment. On the basic of the experiment, then combine much more complicated fractal images with the idea of a creative work on the Poster Design, and develop the possibility of applying the fractal image construction on Poster Design. To sum up, according to the research purpose and discovery, the conclusion of the research is that: 1. Fractal images can be used on Poster Design through the software. 2. Fractal images which are more complicated can also be applied to the Poster Design. 3. Fractal images can combine with the ideas, being applied to the Poster Design. 4. It has potential to apply fractal image construction to the Poster Design. 5. Through principles form and researcher’s experiences of beauty, fractal images can be combined with poster design more profusely and diversely.
