As a designer, I see myself different from others through my background. My cultural upbringing was one of similar to other New Zealanders. I lived in Tauranga with my family by the estuary, so the water was always a big part of my childhood. The influence from my childhood helps me with my design in bringing through the naturalistic techniques and patterns of the water. As a New Zealander, I have a unique perspective as I live in a multi-cultural society and have different perspectives to others form other countries due to New Zealand’s political and social history. New Zealand has always encouraged nuclear free and such activists as the green peace party, as a nature loving country we have grown to stand for these policies and I feel as a designer this understanding of a range of beliefs help us as upcoming designers that we will be able to change the way that new designs evolve.
