Key words：Bamboo Crafts﹐Material Properties﹐Pattern INTRODUCTION This research takes traditional bamboo craft as the research subjects, and experimental implementation as the research method. Constructing the relationship of characters of material, rule of weaving, fabric of pattern, and form of space. Testing its potential to create spaces by repetitious examining. There are three parts of this research, Firstly, research background Organising reference data to set up bamboo features, weaving rules, pattern fabric and related knowledge of Taiwan bamboo weaving to be the reference of following experience. Secondly, experiential research Material –From fundamental material handle and experience process to understand and discover feature and limitation of material. Weaving – On the experience period, assisting by the craftsman, Mr. Jin-Duan Ciou to examine bamboo c by testing material feature and fundamental weaving rule. Thirdly, practical design. Detecting the feasibility of material and weaving bamboo crafts on three practical stages, recording the limitation and problems of scale changing, and examine the design again and again. MATERIALS AND METHODS In the initial research stage, it collects and organizes bamboo weaving information, practical data of weaving rules and implements, recording questions and finding that are created on the practical process to doing bamboo crafts. On the middle research stage, it organises sevenissues to interview the craftsman, Ms. Jin-Duan Ciou. Learning how to handle bamboo and use equipment by the craftsman’s guide and assistance. On the final stage of research, it repetitious processes six experimental researches, as a cycle, to set up issues, practical implementation, recording problems, and discussion of conclusion. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION These three research stages examine the feasibility of material and weaving, record the limitation and problems of scale changing, and examine the design again and again. Attempting to response to finding of previous research that transformation from experimental implement operation to spatial form, except the limitation of material, the discussion of structure also become an important issues on human scale.

The weaving rule is language pattern, and material is word. Every material contains its unique form; Form is produced by material, and also is embodied by material. In the beginning of the dissertation, it takes bamboo weaving as the research issue, although, it also focally discusses on bamboo, it discovers interesting finding from different experience. Furthermore, future research can practice the research result in different material and try new operation technique.
