TEXTILE INTERIOR DECORATION WITH ULI MOTIF
Abstract
This study delves into the incorporation of Uli motifs, a traditional art
form of the Igbo people in Nigeria, into contemporary interior
decoration. It examines the historical and cultural significance of Uli
motifs, exploring their use in various art forms and their resurgence in
modern interior design. This research aims to address the lack of
comprehensive studies on the application of Uli motifs in interior
decoration by investigating their potential to create unique and
culturally significant spaces while overcoming technical challenges.
Through an experimental or exploratory approach, data from academic
literature, online sources, and other artists’ works are analyzed to
develop design concepts and processes. The study highlights the
importance of cultural preservation and innovation in interior design,
showcasing how Uli motifs contribute to both aspects. By exploring the
materials, tools and techniques required for integrating Uli motifs into
interior spaces, this research provides valuable insights for designers,
architects and professionals interested in cultural heritage preservation
and contemporary design practices.
