New cubism & Picasso to inspired interior design and furniture

Abstract

Pablo Ruiz Picasso is one of the best documented and one of the most influential artists of the twentieth century. During his life, he created more than 20,000 paintings and sculptures. Through his invention of forms and techniques, his exploration of space, and his experimentation, Picasso was the leader of an artistic revolution that reached not only painters and sculptors, but also authors, composers, and architects. Picasso begins to look at nature in terms of shapes like cones, spheres and cylinders. It was Picasso's literal translation of this advice that led to one of his most influential periods, a period characterized by an exploration of space and form called Cubism.The aim of this study is to analyze Picasso's paintings as an entry point to get in the interior design. Additionally, try to create new design methodology that inspired by Cubism.The current research discusses what is the cubism? What is the relationship between cubism and modern architecture? I focus in my paper at the Cubism's concepts, technical and stylistic aspects. Also, I explain Picasso's career beginnings, African-influenced period and his crystal period.Objectives:1) Analytical study for the philosophical concept of Picasso's paintings and Cubism, from an architectural viewpoint.2) Inspired design methodology from Picasso's paintings and Cubism to be used in furniture design and internal spaces.
