Abstract:
The advent of Islam in Nusantara sparked new phenomena or changing not only in structure of building construction of religious places, residency and houses but also ornaments and decoration expressing value of beauty of that building. The result of this research tries to reveal how far Islamic influence is working without undermining local aspects of architecture and how Islamic architecture was influenced by other characters in ornament and decorative-ornament artwith various design and sense. Islamic nuances are substantially showed in traditional and contemporary mosque architecture, graveyard, residencies, palaces, historical building and soon and so forth. Although local elementsare clear, and so with Hinduism and Buddhism, animism, colonial influence and other foreign influences including Middle East, Africa, India and China, Islam shows its prominence in interior and exterior ornament as well as its tools.

Abstract:
The cemetery of the King Kotalama complex is the Indragiri royal burial complex of the islamic-style period of Narasinga II. This study focused on the type of ornament that developed in the burial complex of the king of Kotalama. Decoration can provide information about the development of art culture during the reign of Narasinga II. The method used to answer these problems is through morphological analysis and stylistic analysis, in order to find out the types of decorations. The developing decoration shows that the community acculturates the old culture and the new culture. The ornamental variety consists of flora, geometric and calligraphy.

Abstract:
The Islamic tombs in Palembang date from the 16th-20th century AD. Some of the tombs in Palembang are plain and some have decorations. Ornaments are affixed to the jirat and tombstones. The ornaments found on the headstones include medallions. The medallion ornaments vary in shape and are commonly found in temple buildings in Java in the 9th-16th centuries AD. The medallion decorative motifs in Palembang are found on Islamic tombs from the time of the Palembang Darussalam Sultanate. The medallion decorative motifs found are varied and interesting to study from the similarities and differences with those in Java, as well as the reasons for the emergence of these similarities and differences. Based on these two problems, this paper aims to identify the forms of medallion decoration, similarities, and differences, as well as the background to the similarities and differences in the medallion decorations in Palembang and Java. To answer these two problems, archaeological research methods were used by describing the ornamental variety and identifying its diversity. After that, it was analyzed qualitatively using symbolic theory. The results of the study show that the similarities in the decorations are due to the historical relationship between Palembang and the Majapahit and Demak kingdoms in Java. The difference in the medallion decoration is caused by the creativity factor of Palembang artists.

Abstract:
Decorative architectural ornaments are the mainstay of several art forms. Islamic architecture had several properties and characteristics, including the non-depiction of living beings and emulating God's creation of wrongdoing. Therefore, floral, geometrical, and vegetal motifs became the main component of Islamic architectural ornaments. Similarly, Palmette is included and practiced on a large scale in Islamic architecture due to its vegetal or floral forms. This article focuses on the historical aspects of palmette ornament. Additionally, it explores the development and evolution of the ornament from west to east. Moreover, how palmette ornaments are practiced in Islamic Architecture. For this purpose, historical approach of description is used to explore and analyze the palmette ornament in depth.

Abstract:
The object of the study is ornaments in the architecture of ancient and modern mosques. Using the example of mosques in Amman (Jordan), traditional ornaments are considered from the point of view of their purpose, content and symbolism, location and plastic organization. The compositional techniques, stylization methods, images used in ornaments are analyzed. In the modern architecture of mosques, continuity in approaches to decoration is combined with the active use of modern technologies in the construction and interpretation of ornaments, their embodiment in the material. Since there are strong changes in the space-planning solutions of mosques in connection with modern functional tasks, it is ornaments that are the most important means of identifying religious buildings. New interpretations of the visual language and the purpose of the decoration of mosques are due to the processes of globalization and the use of computer technologies for the design of structures. The authors conclude that it is necessary to follow the canons of Islamic ornamental motifs when using them in modern architecture, especially in religious buildings. By offering engineering and artistic innovations, architects must preserve the structure, plasticity and symbolism of ornaments in which the philosophy of Islam accumulates.

Abstract:
The article discusses the method of algorithmic construction of Islamic ornaments, which can be used as a decorative element in architectural design. Two necessary stages are highlighted in the generation of an ornamental motif by means of algorithmic design – the first includes operations on a base mesh consisting of a combination of regular or semiregular cells, for example, drawing rays from the centers of the edges of the original lattice or rotating figures relative to its nodes; the second stage involves the creation of a basic pattern of the ornamental design that fits into a regular or semi-regular polygon, and the decorative motif in the figure is made up of a primitive that is symmetrically reflected relative to any lines, usually rays, emanating from opposite corners of the polygon. The paper analyses the traditional patterns of Islamic ornaments, on the basis of which new designs were built, using visual programming tools (Rhino and Grasshopper).

Abstract:
It is the geometric and vegetal ornamental motifs that dominate in the works of traditional arts and crafts of the Bashkir people. The Bashkirs are Muslims. Therefore, the popularity of abstract ornamental forms in their artistic creativity is often associated with the religious prohibition against images of human beings, animals and birds. However, a comparative historical study of the Bashkir ornaments shows that basic types of geometric and vegetal motifs and also their compositions were formed long before the adoption of Islam by the ancestors of the Bashkirs. Anthropomorphic, ornitomorphic and zoomorphic images were still preserved in the Bashkir art and had very stylized geometric shapes in accordance with the general structure of the composition, type and graphics of the ornament. The preservation of these images in the art was favoured probably not only by a high degree of stylization, but also by the fact that for a long time the Bashkirs, despite the Islamization, remained committed to many remnants of the pre-Islamic worldview with its totemic cults. It can be stated that the adoption of Islam could not ‘edit’ the traditional decorative art of the Bashkirs and exclude archaic motifs and compositions. Old compositions were revised in terms of the new religion. Thus, the fl oral and foliate ornament became associated with the Garden of Eden. New motifs, such as the images of mosques, qumgan (a special jug) and the Crescent, found their way into the Bashkir ornaments together with the new worldview and rituals. Traditional embroidery could be supplemented with embroidered texts in Arabic script. The decorated objects included those directly associated with the Muslim traditions (scullcaps, prayer rugs 'namaslyk', calligraphy pictures 'shama’il').

Abstract:
Purpose of the article аnalyze the features of Islamic geometric ornament as a historical and at the same time modern artistic phenomenon, its formation, development, traditional structural elements. Methodology. General scientific research methods, chronological and historical ‒ comparative, figurative-stylistic, semantic, and theoretical-art history analysis are applied. Results. The features of the historical development of geometric ornament in the countries of Islam, its national, historical, mental, figurative, artistic features are analyzed. Recognized in the world as a unique work of art, Islamic geometric ornament is known for its compositional construction which consists of simple elements (circle, square, triangle). Then by connecting and repeating the shapes according to a certain grid pattern, a complex pattern (hexagon, octagon, star pattern) is created. The richness of the artistic culture of Islam is embodied in the range of its variants. It was found that the geometric ornament, which is the main decorative element on numerous objects, embodies a deep spiritual content. Geometric Islamic ornament embodies thousands of years of creative practice that has become traditional in the Arab East. At the same time, in the modern world, Muslim ornamental traditions remain relevant and reveal opportunities for introducing the acquired artistic experience of the Arab countries into new creative practices, including graphic design. Scientific novelty consists in determining the place and significance of Islamic geometric ornament in modern cultural and historical processes, taking into account its traditional aesthetic, substantial, structural and compositional content. Practical significance. The proposed research expands the understanding of the possibilities of using the traditions of Islamic ornament in modern creative practices. The results can be used in design practice.

Abstract:
The art and architecture of the Great Seljuk period, known as the Renaissance of Persian Art in Persian studies, left an undeniable effect on the following periods. The art of the Great Seljuk period, influenced by the art of the previous periods, became a source of inspiration for the artworks of later periods. The aim of this article is to introduce the stucco ornaments and inscriptions of the mihrab of Ray, to reveal the important values of the mihrab and thus to provide the opportunity to evaluate the influence area and its power of influence. As a result of our research, it is found that the ornamental composition of the mihrab includes inscriptions, vegetal and geometric decorations. Also, these decorations were made in embossing and hollowly technique. There is no information about the artist of the stucco decorations of the altar. Although there is no date inscription on the mihrab, it is similar to the examples of the Great Seljuk period in terms of general shape and decoration features. Also according to the results of this research, the stucco decorations in this mihrab, It is very similar to the decoration of the first Islamic era of Iran, obtained from Neyshabur excavations, stucco decorations discovered from Samarra Exploration, architectural ornaments of the Qarakhanid period, stucco decorations from the Ghaznavid Period, Anatolian Seljuk Architectural decorations and stucco decorations of the Ilkhanid Period of Iran.

Abstract:
Islamic architecture is arguably one of the greatest manifestations of Islamic visual culture. One of the defining aspects of the unique, aesthetic richness of traditional Islamic architecture has been the application of ceramic ornamentation or embellishment. There is a growing concern, however, that this legacy is being eroded. The diminishing identity of Islamic visual culture is particularly evident through current architectural developments occurring in the Arab states. The building revolution in the Gulf countries has dramatically increased momentum since the onset of the ‗oil economy‘, echoing the phenomena of globalization. This research project explores these concerns, discussing the erosion of Islamic ‗identity‘ within contemporary architecture in the Gulf States and in particularly Kuwait, as well as the ensuing decline in the use of ceramics as a defining embellishment material. The research compares the aesthetics of traditional and contemporary Islamic architectural design, whilst also examining the reasons behind this erosion in traditional design style. The diminishing identity of Islamic visual culture is investigated by combining studies in the fields of art, aesthetics, design, architecture, and the social sciences, in order to understand the nature of the research problem. A series of case-studies demonstrates how ceramics may be used to re-introduce a sense of Islamic identity within contemporary architecture. This offers design proposals, new materials and technical processes that acknowledge the rich traditions of Islamic Ceramics while also being appropriate for application within the context of contemporary Islamic architecture detailing; blending contemporary aesthetics and technical thinking with traditional Islamic design. The aim of the case-studies is to offer proposals for a new aesthetic vocabulary of architectural embellishment that is both appropriate to and innovative within, the context of contemporary Islamic architecture. This new aesthetic vocabulary III specifically blends contemporary design principals, new materials and technical processes, whilst acknowledging the rich traditions of Islamic ceramics. The PhD project, applies two types of research methodology: theoretical research and practice-based research. The former focused on social sciences and applied quantitative and qualitative research approaches, including surveys and interviews undertaken within Kuwait. The findings obtained from these surveys verified the emergence of a new cultural style of contemporary architecture and shaped the practice-based element of the project; proposals for ceramic embellishment that are contemporary, while still reflecting many recognizable aspects of traditional Islamic design. The new architectural style can be attributed to factors such as globalization, the adoption of international building styles, and a seeming unwillingness to incorporate traditional styles into new building design, all of which contribute to the currently weak identity of Arabic / Islamic ceramics within Kuwait. Despite of this, the survey revealed that Kuwaiti society maintains a strong relationship and affiliation with Islamic culture, although many seemed unaware of their own rich culture and its past legacy. The practice-based research involved two distinct phases. The first phase involved the development of a large number (172) of new glazes. The glazes were intended to reflect the palette of colours used over generations of Islamic Ceramic culture, while still being appropriate for integration within the contemporary Islamic architectural environment. The second phase of practice involved a series of case studies, embracing a wide range of contemporary architectural ceramic design processes (including 2 and 3 Dimensional geometrical patterns and interpretations of contemporary calligraphic design). The case studies utilised a number of modern technologies, such as 3D Solid modelling, CNC Rapid Prototyping and Laser-cutting, to prove that modern design and manufacturing technologies can be integrated within traditional ceramic processes. The aim being to both provide ceramic products that architects and designers can use to enhance the modern IV architectural environment of Kuwait and re-establish the creative status of ceramics.

Abstract:
My creative work investigates the negative space, the ‘in between space’ that leads to new knowledge about other artists and other cultures. The fundamental and distinctive elements of Islamic pattern in my paintings in the exhibition Dialogue in Diversity are based on my own experience of misinformation as well as rewarding collaboration within a culturally blended family.This research explores the continuity of the arabesque and polygon. I experiment with the hexagon and its geometric shapes, with its many repeat patterns and the interrelatedness of the negative space, or the void indicative of the space between layers of past and present civilizations that are significant fundamentals in my paintings.The thesis Transforming perceptions of Islamic culture in Australia through collaboration in contemporary art traces the visual history of Orientalist art, beginning with a key image of Arthur Streeton, Fatima Habiba, painted in 1897 and contrasts Streeton’s perception with that of important Islamic women artists working globally such as Emily Jacir who participated in the Zones of Contact 2006 Biennale of Sydney.A core element of my research is working with emerging artists from Islamic backgrounds in Western Sydney. The February 2007 exhibition Transforming Perceptions Via . . . at the University of Wollongong brought together artists from east and west.By adopting the Islamic pattern in my paintings, I hope to strengthen the interaction between the Christian and Muslim interface in Australian contemporary society. My work contemplates the human aspects of relationships and responsibilities within the cross cultural spectrum.

Abstract:
This thesis argues that the ornament of Fatehpur Sikri, imperial city of the Mughal emperor Akbar, was created by and for a transcultural audience as a subtle means of unification. Scholars have largely characterized Fatehpur Sikri as a site that epitomizes the blend of Hindu and Islamic architecture. Inherent in this description is the assumption that these visual elements are distinctly religious and mutually exclusive, identified as solely Hindu or Islamic. Yet the integration of various types of imagery is indicative of more dynamic cultural interactions. I have used photographic documentation to classify and analyze the ornamental elements present in three structures at Fatehpur Sikri. My analyses of these elements’ usage and placement, in conjunction with those from surrounding Indian structures, suggest not only a unique Akbari repertoire but provides insight as to the structures’ purposes.

Abstract:
The view of Islamic art as a minor art and its various ornaments as without any purpose or meaning is questionable since such a perspective ignores the great influence of the Islamic religion on it. This study investigates in close detail the philosophy of ornament in Islamic art. Clearly, Islamic ornamentation plays a central role in Islamic art and architecture. It is divided into four main elements: Arabic calligraphy, vegetal and geometric ornament, and human and animal figural representation. Due to the significance of Islamic ornamentation, this study will examine its origins, development and impacts on the art and architecture of other cultures as well as the influence of other cultures on the development of Islamic ornamentation. It will also examine the rich historical and cultural background from which the art of Islamic ornament emerged in order to identify the characteristics of Islamic ornament in the context of history, its development, its aesthetic values and its underlying philosophy and forms of expression. In this study the historical survey method is employed to examine the development of Islamic ornamental elements. This study also explores the various Islamic ornamental methods and techniques that artists used to create beautiful Islamic ornaments as well as the meanings of Islamic ornamental symbols in both Islamic art and architecture. This study identifies the most important factors contributing to the beauty of Islamic ornamentation. The nature of the relationship between Islamic artists and spectators and their roles in the context of Islamic art also is examined. The thesis concludes that Islamic ornamentations are based on a divine philosophy that stimulates contemplation of God's Majesty and transcendence through wonder at the cosmos He has created. Another important characteristic of Islamic culture is its acceptance of cultural variations which it absorbed and then used to develop its own unique character and identity. Finally, the study identifies two types of Islamic ornamentation, namely, secular ornamentation and pure Islamic ornamentation, and offers a contrastive definition of both.

Dissertação de Mestrado Integrado em Arquitetura, com a especialização em Arquitetura apresentada na Faculdade de Arquitetura da Universidade de Lisboa para obtenção do grau de Mestre.
Portugal e o Azerbaijão tiveram uma forte influência islâmica no passado. Mesmo hoje em dia, podemos experimentar sinais desse património cultural e do impacto tangível e intangível em ambos os países. É perceptível em muitas áreas da mesma forma na arquitetura. Em Portugal, apesar de muitos exemplos de influência da herança islâmica terem sido perdidos ou destruídos, ainda existem em algumas cidades em particular um notável legado de arquitectura e ornamentação. Por outro lado, a situação no Azerbaijão é ligeiramente diferente devido ao fato de que a maioria da população do Azerbaijão é muçulmana. Portanto, ainda existem muitos exemplos vivos de motivos geométricos islâmicos na arquitetura e, eventualmente, uma tradição viva. A presente dissertação é parte de um projeto de pesquisa em andamento intitulado “Biomédica e Morfogênese Digital”, inscrito no Centro de Pesquisa CIAUD da Faculdade de Arquitetura da Universidade de Lisboa. O foco principal deste trabalho será dado a girih - um padrão geométrico específico utilizado na decoração islâmica, que pode ser encontrado em uma ampla área de Portugal para o Azerbaijão. Os padrões geométricos em Portugal foram usados ​​principalmente em azulejos, alfarge e algumas obras de estuque, enquanto no Azerbaijão, eles são empregados em diferentes maneiras de projetar principalmente decorações de pedra e decorações de vidro em "shebeke" (uma arte de criar janelas consistindo de de vidro colorido e pequenos detalhes de madeira presos sem cola ou unhas usando). No entanto, todos os elementos decorativos utilizados utilizam uma gama de simetrias que agora foram classificadas como pertencentes a grupos matemáticos distintos. Mas a sutileza e a beleza dos designs são incomparáveis ​​no pensamento e design matemáticos modernos. Assim, o nosso objetivo é tentar estabelecer uma relação entre os exemplos de pesquisa de padrões geométricos islâmicos em Portugal e no Azerbaijão; montar um paralelo entre esses elementos decorativos em ambos os países; e tentar estabelecer se existem algumas conexões, semelhanças e os níveis de correspondência.
ABSTRACT: Portugal and Azerbaijan had a strong Islamic influence in the past. Even nowadays, we can experience signs of this cultural heritage, and the tangible and intangible impact in both countries. It is noticeable in many areas likewise in architecture. In Portugal, despite many examples of Islamic heritage influence have been lost or destroyed, there still are in some particular cities a remarkable architecture and ornamentation legacy. On the other hand, the situation in Azerbaijan is slightly different due to the fact that the majority of Azerbaijan’s population is Muslim. Therefore, there are still many living examples of Islamic geometric motifs in architecture and eventually, a living tradition.The present dissertation is part of an ongoing research project entitled “Biomimetics and Digital Morphogenesis” enrolled at the CIAUD Research Centre of the Faculty of Architecture of the University of Lisbon. The main focus of this work will be given to girih - a particular geometric pattern used in Islamic decoration, which can be found in a wide area from Portugal to Azerbaijan. The geometric patterns in Portugal were used mainly in “azulejos”, "alfarge" and some stucco works, while in Azerbaijan, they are employed in different manners of designing mainly stone decorations and glass decorations on "shebeke" (an art of creating windows consisting of colorful glass and small wooden details attached without glue or nail using). Nevertheless, all of the decorative elements deployed use a range of symmetries that have now been classified as belonging to distinct mathematical groups. But the subtlety and beauty of the designs are unparalleled in modern mathematical thinking and design. Thus, our goal is to try to establish a relationship between the survey examples of Islamic geometric patterns in Portugal and Azerbaijan; to assemble a parallel between those decorative elements in both countries; and try to establish if there are some connections, similarities and the levels of correspondence.

Abstract:
This chapter looks at Moorcroft’s training as a potter at the firm of E.J.D. Bodley where his father had worked as Artistic Director, and his education both at the innovative Burslem School of Art and at the National Art Training School (soon to be renamed the Royal College of Art). His appointment as a designer at James Macintyre & Co., Ltd. put him in a firm at the very centre of enlightened art education in the Potteries, its Directors including the forward-looking M.P. Wm Woodall (who had served on the Royal Commission on Technical Instruction), the philanthropist Th. Hulme, and the gifted ceramic chemist, H. Watkin. It was a firm developing its production of electrical porcelain, but keen also to invest in the manufacture of high-quality art pottery. The firm’s Minutes reveal the great benefit it soon derived from Moorcroft’s appointment. After just four years, Moorcroft had acquired an international reputation as a ceramic artist, and his Florian ware was stocked by exclusive retailers the world over, bringing widespread commercial success. It was the ideal collaboration of manufacturer and designer, of commerce and art, very much in the spirit of the Arts and Crafts. The chapter also considers Moorcroft’s distinctive integration of ornament and form, a quality often singled out in early reviews and quite different from the ‘applied’ decoration of much contemporary pottery. No less distinctive was his technique of slip decoration, his unusually rich colours achieved by staining the unfired clay with metallic oxides, and his unique practice of signing every pot by hand.

Abstract:
Traditional artistic creation, manifested through customs, traditions, folklore, is the basic substratum of the knowledge about a civilisation and its culture. Th roughout the entire process of its constitution, the Romanian people produced a huge substratum of archaeological cultures and mythic-folkloric structures that constitute the essence of folk creation. Folk architecture is one of the most impressive material forms from the past of any civilization. Evolving over time, it shaped some of the traditions and practices in peasant constructions, in the evolution of architectural forms, and the development of ornament and architectural decoration. Th e issue addressed refers to the plastic language of universal motifs, which are deeply rooted in Romanian culture and which contain messages encoded in a string of symbolic connotations. It involves deciphering the message and interpreting the symbolic meaning of the Tree of Life, some aspects of the solar cult, symbols as images of the world and of the universe, and the multiple representations that are part of the animal iconography repertoire.

Abstract:
В статье представлен комплекс стекла 56 вв.н.э., выявленный в ходе подводных раскопок фундамента причального сооружения в акватории Фанагории. Благодаря довольно длительному периоду формирования комплекса находок в нем отразились изменения в ассортименте бытовавшей стеклянной посуды: от весьма разнообразного в 5 в. до скудного набора 6 в., в котором безраздельно доминировали рюмки . Набор сосудов в полной мере отражает сложившуюся в рассматриваемое время ситуацию, характеризующуюся открытостью торговых маршрутов, которые связывали различные регионы Европы: одинаковые стеклянные изделия, производившиеся в одних и тех же центрах Восточного Средиземноморья, находят как в довольно удаленных друг от друга, так и от центров производства регионах. Благодаря активной торговле быстро распространялась мода на одни и те же сосуды и приемы их орнаментации, что служило стимулом для появления производства популярных сосудов в разных точках средиземноморско-причерноморского региона. Таким образом, представленная коллекция стекла, как и комплекс керамики этого времени, продемонстрировала включенность Фанагории рассматриваемого периода в обширный средиземноморско-причерноморский рынок. The article presents the glass assemblage of the 5th6th centuries found in the course of underwater excavations of the quay in the harbour of Phanagoria. The collection presents a great variety of forms and reflects changes in the assortment of glass vessels in the course of time. The 5th century is characterized by the extensive assortment of forms and various types of decoration (relief mold-blown, blue blobs and polished ornament). In the 6th century most kinds of ornamentation disappeared, the range of vessel types were reduced to 2-3 main forms with considerable predominance of stemmed goblets. All these changes occurred in terms of process common for the entire MediterraneanPontic region in the Late Antiquity. This period is characterized by the well-developed network of trade routes that connected sometimes very remote regions with production centers of the Eastern Mediterranean and Europe. The intensive trade promoted the spread of fashion for various forms of vessels and ornamentation that in its turn stimulated the appearance of new manufacturing centers that produced popular glass vessels in different points of the Mediterranean-Pontic region.

Abstract:
In addition to their undeniable aesthetic value, ornaments are the element that may differentiate the various social groups or individuals belonging to certain groups. More specifically, body decoration is closely related to social identity. The ornament, as a form of communication, has a certain advantage over other means of communication because, once displayed, perhaps even more than language itself, the individual wearing it need not make any effort to deliver his/her message, social sta-tus, their belonging to a group etc. The first adornments used during the Paleolithic are beads, while perforated shells are among the earliest examples of this sort. In a few cases, the perforated shells come from species rarely used in the Paleolithic, brought from long distances, in terms of the settlements in which they were found so, apart from individualizing and characterizing a certain group, they may represent important documents regarding migrations over wide areas and even regarding the origin of a culture. This is shown by new discoveries made in an early Gravettian layer at the Poiana Cireului site (Piatra Neam, north-eastern Romania), dated between 30 ka and 31 ka BP (Niu et al., 2019). The ornaments discovered here include a unique association of perforat-ed shells represented by three species of mollusks: Lithoglyphus naticoide, Litho-glyphus apertus and Homalopoma sanguineum (an exclusively Mediterranean spe-cies). This occupation differs from Central and Eastern European Gravettian tradi-tions through the symbolic behavior of the communities, defined by the use of perfo-rated shells of freshwater and marine (Mediterranean origin) mollusk belonging to species very rarely used in the Palaeolithic. Poiana Cireului is one of the very few Gravettian sites where perforated Homalopoma sanguineum shells were found and is the only Gravettian settlement where Lithoglyphus naticoides shells were used. We present the ornaments discovered and the results of analysis performed to identify the perforation methods and the use-wear traces. The presence of a Mediterranean species at the Poiana Cireului settlement located more than 900 km from the nearest source suggests the connection of communities here with the Mediterranean area. In the light of these new findings, the origin and diffusion of the Gravettian from the Mediterranean to the east of the Carpathians are a hypothesis that should be considered.
