A NEW INTERPRETATION OF CLASSIC FURNITURE DECORATIONS BASED ON NATIONAL MOTIFS: ANALYSIS AT THE INTERSECTION OF ARCHITECTURE AND DESIGN

Abstract

This scientific article investigates the compositional, tectonic, and ergonomic synthesis patterns between classical furniture styles and traditional national motifs of Uzbekistan in modern interior design. In the context of globalization, preserving cultural identity and adapting it to contemporary spaces is one of the critical challenges in architecture and design. The research is based on the IMRAD structure, analyzing the integration of Uzbek traditional patterns (girih, islimi) into classical European furniture forms (neoclassicism, baroque, and empire). Through comparative analysis, grapho-analytical methods, case studies, and visual design modeling, the study developed geometric and proportional rules for incorporating traditional motifs into furniture architectonics. The results indicate that the linear geometry of girih patterns demonstrates the highest level of visual compatibility with the strict tectonics of neoclassical forms, while the biomorphic characteristics of islimi patterns harmonize with curved furniture elements. In conclusion, practical recommendations for applying national motifs to classical furniture and directions for future design research are outlined. The findings of this study can serve as a practical guide for architects, interior designers, and furniture industry professionals. The developed principles can be integrated into designer training curricula and implemented in furniture production.
