Fusion Design for Dong Ethnic Culture Recognition under Workshop Method

บทคัดย่อ

           Facing the intertwining of ethnic culture and fashion trend design in the era of globalization, researchers have observed the collision and fusion of the two within social life. As a result, exploring their potential for coexistence has emerged as a new focus in design research.
           The research aim is to explore and analyze the typical cultural symbol characteristics of the Dong ethnic group. By using participatory workshops, the study achieves practical application, followed by comprehensive analysis, and concludes with a set of methods for fusion design. Through field research, the study explores and analyzes cultural symbols and applies participatory workshops for fusion design practice, setting up two workshops for the visual and clothing groups. Through expert interviews, half of the samples are selected, and data are compared and analyzed on how homogeneous fusion and heterogeneous fusion can blend with Dong's cultural elements.
           The results demonstrate that participatory workshops can significantly enhance participants' understanding of Dong culture. The application of integrated design successfully guides participants to a more profound experience and understanding of Dong culture, culminating in a new, practicable set of fusion design methods that conserve design resources. This research holds substantial practical significance for preserving and promoting culture and furnishes new perspectives and methods for analogous studies.
