Why studying culture is important for designer

It is about how we do things, why and the values we share in common with other people. Culture is a powerful thing that influences much more than we often realize. Design is no different. Culture influences what every culture sees as good design, bad design or just plan boring design.

Overall the experience of learning culture and community was totally different through this project i got know a lot of things like about material , non-material , text , context , and subtext and soo on .

Through this project i connected with my family specially with my grand parents i got to know a lot of things about our culture and community and our norms and rituals after knowing a lot i realized that our culture is slowly dying and we need to put our efforts to protect it .
