A Sketch-Based Generation System for Oriental Cloud Pattern Design

摘要

Cloud patterns are essential design elements used in oriental art that harmonize well with other ornament patterns. The expression of oriental cloud patterns uses simple curves to abstract a natural phenomenon. This study analyzed the structures of traditional cloud patterns, and proposed a system that can create a similar style of structuring cloud patterns. The proposed system allows users to sketch simple strokes as an initial step in creating a cloud shape, and subsequently, the users can automatically generate various results that conform to the oriental cloud pattern.
