The purpose of this study is to develop geometric patterns which can be
reinterpreted in a modern sense and textile designs which can be
commercialized in the mural painting of Goguryeo Dynasty's tomb. Of 42
tombs where genres and portraits could be observed, the costume style of
Goguryeo dynasty could be mainly observed in the tombs built in the 4th
and 5th centuries. Since geometric patterns found in the portrait could be
represented in a modern sense, this study was intended to develop the
patterns of a necktie which is one of cultural products by applying
geometric patterns in the mural painting of Goguryeo Dynasty's tomb in the
5th century with many patterns distributed. The scope of patterns was
limited to a square, a triangle, a circle, and a diagonal line which were the
basic of geometric patterns found in the mural painting. The methods of
study were literature review and empirical study. Adobe Photoshop CS3 was
used to edit geometric patterns found in the mural painting of Goguryeo
Dynasty's tomb in the 5th century. By extracting a square(□), a triangle(△),
a circle(○), and a diagonal line(\) from edited images, predicted images
were proposed before products were made. Finally textile designs were
made through the simulation of edited design patterns in the necktie and
handkerchief. This study will contribute to the positive effects on the
geometric patterns and the construction of Korean image.
