Folklore is a collection of folk traditions, customs, stories and artistic expressions that are passed down from generation to generation. It reflects the identity and history of people, their connection with nature and with the community. However, folklore is also a rich source of inspiration for interior design. It can give interiors a unique atmosphere. Folklore is characterized by the use of traditional materials, patterns and colors. For example, in the Czech lands, fabrics with blue print, canvas and embroidery were very popular.
Throughout history, folklore elements have appeared in homes in various forms:
- The Romantic period in the 19th century brought an interest in folk arts and crafts. The interiors were decorated with embroidered textiles, hand-painted ceramics and wooden decorations with folklore motifs.
- At the beginning of the 20th century, folklore became a symbol of national awareness. The interiors were enriched by costume textiles, furniture with folk ornaments and decorations inspired by folk art.
- In the 21st century, folklore returns to homes in a modern and light-hearted form. Thanks to modern technologies and the possibilities of global communication, it provides ideas to creators all over the world who combine traditional elements with modern design. It is not necessary to strictly follow the accepted rules. Instead, folklore can be seen as a stimulus for playing with colors, patterns and materials .
