Abstract

Decorative design is a type of flat design that aims to treat elements in a decorative manner that emphasizes their decorative and aesthetic value through their structural systems. The designer derives the elements he uses in his decorative designs from multiple sources, from which he draws inspiration and new ideas that suit his creative work.
Among these sources is heritage. Heritage refers to the sum of the results of previous civilizations that are inherited from ancestors to descendants. It is the result of human experiences, desires, and conversations, whether in the fields of science, thought, language, or literature. Not only that, but it extends to include all material and emotional aspects of society, from philosophy, religion, art, architecture, folklore, and economic heritage as well.
Art is a creative product that stems from human culture and is influenced by the surrounding environment, including social, political, geographical and historical circumstances. It is a vital necessity for humans to express their thoughts, emotions and beliefs. This expression is embodied through images, sculptures, architecture or various applied arts. This is what the artist has expressed in his artwork, which embodies a heritage that has continued and been immortalized across different eras. It is the best example for us of the creative advancement that the artist has achieved across these eras.
