Description
This research aims to provide a better understanding about the relationship between a user's cultural values and the emotional attachment they develop with products through a cross-cultural study on Australian and Iranian cultures. This research undertook two studies employing a mixed method approach comprising a quantitative study in the form of a survey and a qualitative study through in-depth semi-structured interviews. The outcomes were consolidated and analysed to inform the development of a framework to assist designers to increase sustainability by improving product attachment through encompassing a user's cultural attributes in their designs.
