Abstract

The work aims to explore a design framework for cultural and creative products of traditional Chinese paintings, which involves the collaborative participation of painting inheritors, designers, and users and can fully leverage the knowledge of painting inheritors for the external form design of cultural products while guiding users to gradually understand the traditional Chinese paintings, thereby realizing the concept of living heritage preservation. Building upon the double diamond model, a design framework based on interactive genetic algorithms is proposed for traditional Chinese painting cultural and creative products. The first step is algorithm system design, collaborating with painting inheritors to integrate their knowledge and develop an interactive genetic algorithm system. The second step is pattern element design, inviting users to interact with the system to identify preferred painting pattern features, deepening their understanding of traditional Chinese paintings. The third step is cultural and creative product design, creating prototypes based on user-approved pattern elements. The interactive genetic algorithm integrates painting inheritors and users into the design process of traditional Chinese painting cultural and creative products, refining the design framework and effectively advancing the concept of using cultural creative product design to promote the living heritage of traditional Chinese paintings.
