Introduction
This book is grounded in the historical development of production and daily life in traditional Chinese society. It is organized into two volumes: Four Crafts and Six Works: The Technological Evolution and Iteration of Traditional Chinese Industries and Eight Dimensions of People's Livelihood: The Popularization and Consumption of Traditional Chinese Lifestyles. The content covers various aspects, including construction, weaving, casting, firing, woodworking, basketry, stonework, metalworking, papermaking, lacquerware, as well as clothing, dining, housing, traveling, leisure, daily use, entertainment, and rituals. Through these two broad perspectives, the book presents a comprehensive design study of traditional Chinese craftsmanship, establishing classification standards for traditional Chinese artifacts and opening new avenues for design research.
