39. Culture Affects How People Think

Consider Culture when Creating Design

• Different cultures view information differently
• For example, Eastern cultures focus more on relationships whereas Western cultures focus more individually. This means that people from the East may pay more attention to the context of your design whereas people from the west pay more attention to the individual pieces.
• These differences are not based on DNA but culture so it is important to research your audience so you can better understand how they view data.
