Abstract
Since we live in a global marketplace, designers do not only design for domestic consumers, but also design for international users. In this paper, I am proposing The Product Value System, an integrated design approach that is able to provide an appropriate design direction for industrial designers when dealing with an unfamiliar culture. This paper will introduce different viewpoints of culture, and how The Product Value System can be used for an industrial design project. In the end, the testing results and limitations of the tested project will be shown.
