Nowadays, with the competition among the developed countries, the industrial products including technology, capability, structure, material will be more and more familiar, which can not reach the demand of the market. So people have to mine the culture potential of the products in order to be the winners in the market. Actually, it will be one of the essential methods in the future.With the development of the industrial design, we not only get varieties of products which have flooded our world, but also can think about the relative between the design and philosophy, the design and the culture. Actually, the design, including the motive and the principle, do really can not exist without the infection of the philosophy and the culture. When we take the behavior of design, the essence for one whole, we have to seek the basic and exact answers in the field of philosophy and culture.In my opinion, to create the products is to create the culture. On this sense, the industrial design can be named the culture design. There is one sentence in the declare ofBAUGAUS——"the industrial design is for the human, not for the products". We can seethe culture essence of the industrial design. Researching the relative of the design and the culture, we can find out the motive, intention and principle of the human's design activities. What's more, we can analyze the product design on the height of culture. Eventually, we get to know the product design thoroughly. It is do really very important for those who study or apply the industrial design. We will be losers and the products losing profound idea only have shapes without these.Just basing on the above, this article develop on the systematic characteristic and historical principle. And break the popular style which give the introduction of the historical design school. We just analyze the cultural element exist in the products so as to get a view of the cultural background and region characteristic. Then we can find out the "contextual" in the product development evolution. We draw the conclusion that it is essential of traditional culture in the product design. As a industrial designer, we should derive the nutrition from the traditional culture and create the products of nowadays or future. In this kind of situation, the products will have "significant forms".
