Complexity of the floral pattern in ventilation panel of timber building in Kelantan and Terengganu
Modern architecture is partly responsible for disappearance of wood carving in Malay architecture. Wood carving is an art that portrays the identity of Malay traditional architecture. There are more than 20 carved components of a traditional Malay building which include ventilation panels on walls a...

Modern architecture is partly responsible for disappearance of wood carving in Malay architecture. Wood carving is an art that portrays the identity of Malay traditional architecture. There are more than 20 carved components of a traditional Malay building which include ventilation panels on walls and above doors and windows. However, little is known on the complexity of the carving which has been passed from a generation of woodcarver to another. This study aimed to identify the trend on the complexity pattern of floral motifs on the carved ventilation panels fitted on Malay traditional buildings which from the period of 1840s to 2000s in the states of Kelantan and Terengganu. Data of carving motif were obtained from a set of 16 measured drawings from the Centre for the Study of Built Environment in the Malay World (KALAM) at Universiti Teknologi Malaysia.
