Summary:碩士 === 國立雲林科技大學 === 創意生活設計系 === 105 === As trends change over time, the cultural and creative industries have been gaining importance and drawing attention due to the constantly improving quality of people’s lives. Life aesthetics based on green design has also become a kind of stress relieving life experience. Given lack of cultural features in commercially available planting ware, this study has looked into design elements for pots in architectural way of thinking. Among Taiwan's traditional architectures, Fujian-style architecture is the most characteristic and contains cultural connotations in shape formation. Therefore, this study has focused on transforming the shape formation of roof ridges in Fujain-style architecture and applying the results to pot design in the hope that this additional cultural value can increase the aesthetics and fun of pots. This study examined discourses on cultural creativity and ceramic craftsmanship, roof ridge decorations in Fujian-style architecture and pot design examples in a literature review to establish the creation background and basis. Then, the creation strategy and method were developed based on the literature analysis and were combined with experiences obtained from experimental creation to form the design basis for final creation. This was followed by the creation stage, in which a multi-level processing technique was used. Two main bodies were formed in the shape of roof ridge decorations in Fujian-style architecture using both cement and ceramic and were added with functionality and fun to create two series of products. Finally, a questionnaire survey was conducted to obtain feedback on the finished creations. The following three conclusions are drawn from the series of products created using the aforementioned methods: (1) By examining the form and aesthetics of roof ridges in traditional Fujian-style architecture, shape-forming elements have been obtained and applied. (2) Through the experimental creation, an innovative method has been developed that combines two heterogeneous materials, ceramic and cement. (3) Combining culture and creativity can increase the aesthetics and functionality of pots.
