This paper intends to discuss the changes in the cultural connotation and modeling style of the traditional cloud and thunder pattern, and hopes to summarize the results of the design. The theme of this research is named "Endless Happiness(長樂未央)". The term " Endless Happiness " is a common auspicious phrase used in the Han Dynasty, which means never ending happiness and joy.

With the inheritance of the ages, the varied cloud patterns and styles, there are many places worthy of our in-depth exploration. Among them are not only the spirit of the Chinese people’s admiration for the natural phenomena of the sky, but also the unique aesthetic and design spirit of Oriental culture.
