How to restore the Song Dynasty home in modern home?

Regarding how to restore the home of the Song Dynasty in modern home life, I think we can start from the following aspects.

1. Shape Restoration of Bamboo Furniture in Song Dynasty Painting

In painting, bamboo furniture often appears with the painted characters and will be blocked by people or things. In addition, there are freehand brushwork techniques in traditional Chinese painting, which are deviated from the actual situation. Therefore, the shapes of bamboo furniture in these paintings need to be calculated and restored by certain methods. The restoration of traditional bamboo furniture includes shape, scale, color and material.

2. Restoration of traditional bamboo furniture in Song Dynasty.

Based on the overall image of bamboo furniture in painting, referring to similar wooden furniture in Song and Ming Dynasties, combined with relevant literature records, the shape of bamboo furniture is finally calculated. Take the spot bamboo rose chair in Eighteen Singles as an example. There are three similar rose chairs in Eighteen Bachelor, and the other two are wooden rose chairs. The rose chair with bamboos in the 18th Bachelor's Picture is similar to most rose chairs at that time: 1) Because of the need of "respectful instrument" sitting posture, the height of the chair back is not higher than half the size of an ordinary armchair; 2) Due to the transition from low sitting to high sitting, this rose chair generally has a treadmill and is now used as a pedal; 3) There are waist structures under the chair surface and the treadmill, similar to those in later furniture. This waist structure plays a dual role of decoration and mechanical structure.

3. Recover from the scale of traditional bamboo furniture

Scale is a very important design factor of furniture. A good proportional relationship is not only the basis for satisfying the use function of furniture, but also an important factor for the overall beauty of furniture. The scale of bamboo furniture in Song Dynasty painting can not be accurately measured, which is the difficulty of bamboo furniture restoration. When determining the scale of furniture in painting, this paper estimates it through ergonomics, design geometry and analogy between similar traditional furniture.

4. Restore from the colors and materials of traditional bamboo furniture.

Painting in Song Dynasty has artistic characteristics of "emotion" and "meaning", and color expression is highly subjective. So the color and material of the objects in the painting are very different from the real situation. In the process of digital restoration of bamboo furniture, it should be made according to the true color and material of bamboo furniture. Bamboo furniture generally retains the original texture, color, surface luster and other characteristics of bamboo. The surface of bamboo furniture in Song Dynasty painting is mainly presented with bamboo green as the outer surface. The natural colors of bamboo green are green, yellow-green and so on. After a period of use, with the contact with human body, the color of bamboo green will turn into reflective brown red. Bamboo green has a smooth and delicate texture. With the increase of use time, some bamboo furniture surfaces will have a bright and lubricated texture.
