Blog #8: Why consider culture when designing artwork?

Culture plays a very important role in the type of artwork you create as a designer. The reason for this is that each culture is different which makes the message you deliver in each design different. For example: you can't use English on a design in a Spanish speaking country. You would have failed as a designer because the message in the design would not have been received. The role of culture in each design is important as it allows you to consider the strategy to take, the elements that will be used and methods that will be taken when completing an artwork. This ensures that it will be accepted by the culture it is being designed for and the messages can be interpreted. It allows you, as the designer, to become apart of the culture and to design an artwork that is culture made.
