Introduction Abaya based

Introduction The Ginger Bread Style House

Introduction Vimanmek Mansion

The purpose of the research project To study, analyze, and process knowledge about the gingerbread wood carvings in Vimanmek Mansion To study the design priciples of Abaya embroidered fabric (black dress for muslim women) and the usage of color in the openwork design To study the technique of creating embroidered and openwork fabrics To use the knowledge acquired in 1,2,3 to create designs for Abaya (black dress for muslim women) for the target age group of 25-35 within Bangkok Vimanmek Mansion

Research Methodology Conceptual framework of the research project

Finding The researcher has collected data from the field studies, referring to the 6 photographs of the perforated wood work in the Ginger Bread House style at Vimanmek Mansion. The criteria for analysis are: Shape, Color, Material, and Decorative Purpose. The data is then used to develop creative designs for embroidered openwork patterned fabrics for Muslim women aged 25-35 in Bangkok in the next stage.

Sample 1 Shape Color Material Decorative Purpose Using lines and curves, the patterns are taken from natural motifs, such as flowers, leaves, integrating the patterns together in a continuous motion and repeating patterns. Only one color is used throughout the pieces, with a darker concentration of color as the frame to draw attention. A painted wood material is used in a matte and glossy pattern. The piece is used to decorate stairs banisters, covering the whole length.

Sample 2 Shape Color Material Decorative Purpose Leaf pattern and motifs are assembled together into geometric bouquets. The pattern within the frame is horizontally symmetric. The piece usesa contrasting color to the frame, which is light brown and green, which is a color pairing inspired by nature. Perforated wood, matte finish The piece is used to decorate the area above doors and used as ventilation through the perforated patterns.

Sample 3 Shape Color Material Decorative Purpose The patterns resemble flower petals placed together to create geometric shapes. The pattern within the frame is horizontally symmetric. The piece uses a similar color to the frame, which is white and light brown, to create harmony. Perforated wood, matte finish The piece is used to decorate the area above doors and used as ventilation through the perforated patterns.

Sample 4 Shape Color Material Decorative Purpose A motif of cascading flowers is used to make a horizontal patter. Only one color is used throughout the pieces, with a darker concentration of color as the frame to draw attention. A painted wood material is used in a matte and glossy pattern.
