Abstract:

The basic feature and technical limitations of brocades with traditional triple weft structure were analyzed. The improved design principle and method for brocades with triple weft structure was proposed based on digital technology. Digital weave databases were developed using a layered design method. The effect of covering each other in the case of triple weft structure could be realized by flexible use of the databases of various layers. The practicability and effect of brocade based on innovative design is proved by digital jacquard design examples. The application of digital design technology to Chinese brocade made color expression ability and design efficiency enhanced, along with removal of above mentioned technical limitations.
