Title: Wood Structure Construction Techniques Series Posters

The theme of this series of posters comes from the traditional Chinese wood structure construction craftsmanship, one of the intangible cultural heritage. Choose mortise and tenon technology, and tile technology, two traditional wood structure construction technologies with distinctive cultural characteristics and three-dimensional structure, to design font posters. Use the expression method of three-dimensional perspective to show the characteristics of the two techniques and some classic construction techniques in the two techniques. The overall use of black, white, and gray color matching is close to the style of architectural drawings.

Title: A Tune of Climbing Mountain

Designer: Chen Jiajing  2019 Art Design Program

The Mongolian mountain climbing tune was included in China's intangible heritage in 2008. Mountain climbing tune is a short-tuned folk song popular in the central and western regions of Inner Mongolia. Most of their artistic styles are high-pitched, rough, open and unrestrained, and they are good at using expressive techniques such as comparison, exaggeration, and parallelism. The zigzag lines in the background represent mountains, and colorful directional arrows are used to represent the ups and downs of tones.

Title: Mid-Autumn Festival in Xiamen  

Designer: Zhang Yifei  2019 Art Design Program

Bobing is an intangible cultural heritage. The activity of Bobing unique to southern Fujian during the Mid-Autumn Festival is integrated into the picture to create a happy and cheerful atmosphere. In addition, the designer selects the landmark buildings in Xiamen as the background of the poster, and adds words and a box in front. In this way, the reader's attention is limited to the range set by the box to enhance the visual effect to a certain extent.
