Abstract

One of Indonesia's cultural heritage is woven songket. Songket is not just a piece of cloth but with a diversity of functions and motifs contained profound philosophy about human life. Hence, the songket fabric must be preserved so as not to disappear due to the influx of modern cloth products from outside.This study aims to create a digital museum that displays digital images of woven songket and provide information relating to the various motifs representing the cultural distinctiveness of local centers in  Sumatra. In addition, a digital gallery is developed to display a wide range of products derived from the local creative industries of songket cloth. The methods used for data collection are observation and interview. The development of digital museum consists of the process of formulation, planning, analysis, design, manufacture and testing of web pages, as well as evaluation.
