Abstract
This work examines a method for using symbols that relate to culture from particular areas in the teaching of design with a focus on appearance. The study presents a structure that includes foundations using theory and also includes approaches to teaching, and it suggests a model using three levels that involve the movement from symbol to features relating to appearance to design as the main approach for the method. The work describes a system for teaching that follows a structure with steps that include learning about concepts, then conducting work that uses trial approaches, then bringing together different elements. The study also establishes a setting that uses work on specific tasks in a studio and includes discussion that examines ideas in depth as support for teaching. The research attempts to connect work that maintains aspects of culture with design approaches that represent current practice. It provides a model for teaching that can be used in practice for developing individuals working in design who show ability to understand culture and to change forms in ways that involve creating new approaches.
