The Manifestation of Cultural Biases at Farmers Markets
Description
Course: Project 3: Design Research
Period: Feb 2022 - Jun 2022
Team: Ramya Krishnan, Luuk Schot & Zeynep Uğur
Coaching: Daisy Yoo
Project Goal:
Farmer’s markets are often seen as sustainable and community oriented. However, not everyone feels equally welcome. Therefore, we explored through a design research project how cultural biases are manifested in these market environments. In the end, there wasn’t one clear cultural bias dominating the market, but there were many nuanced insights. For example, expats often described the fish stalls as “intimidating”. Not because of the products, but because of the loud and fast Dutch interactions.
