| description | This study attempts to identify, analyse and transform selected motifs found in several
traditional houses in Kedah. The aim of this study is to explore the potential of
trans forming local Islamic motifs into a digital format, enabling them to be used
widely in other fields of design.
This study is qualitative in nature. It began with the identification of architectural
Islamic motifs, which followed by drawing and computing processes. In addition,
certain procedures were carried to modify the motifs' designs. The study revealed the
unity concept and understanding of Islamic art and its diversity that related to local
factors. It found that the geometrical shapes and calligraphic forms were not widely
used in Malaysia. Furthermore the calligraphic motifs needed certain ways of
modification and changes.
It is hoped that this study would encourage more Muslim artists and designers in
Malaysia to use Malaysian-based Islamic motif in their work. |
