The Basic Pattern of Oriental Flower Arrangement Art

Oriental flower arrangement is represented by China and Japanese. Different from western flower arrangement, oriental flower arrangement pays more attention to the smart beauty of lines and shapes. The following is the basic pattern of oriental flower arrangement art that I brought to you. Welcome to reading.

The basic pattern of oriental flower arrangement consists of three main branches, which are called "subject, guest, envoy", "heaven, earth and people" or "truth, goodness and beauty" according to different schools. Although the titles are different, they all express eastern philosophy.

In China, we call the longest branch "making branch". Taking "Zuozhi" as a reference, the basic flower patterns can be divided into: upright, inclined, flat, tiled and upside down.

Upright type

Stand the branches upright and insert them at an angle not exceeding 30 degrees. The pattern is peaceful and steady, and the upright pattern is often used in formal and grand occasions.

Inclined type

Branches are inserted at an angle of 30-60 degrees. The pattern is leisurely and beautiful, and the works inserted at will are suitable for daily life.

Flat type

Branches are inserted from the opening of flower organs at an angle of 60-90 degrees. The pattern is free and easy, with strong sense of movement and personality, and it is inserted in special occasions.

Tile type

To make branches different from other patterns, they should be "upright first and then inclined out", but inserted directly along the edge of flower organs or water surface. The pattern is peaceful, comfortable and satisfied.

Inverted type

Make the branches protrude from the flower organ and bend below the edge of the flower organ. The pattern has a strong sense of conquest and adventure, showing a strong flavor of life.
