Sharing a model from 'Package design workbook: The art and science of successful packaging' (p. 36) by DuPuis, S., & Silva, J. (2008). Beverly, Mass: Rockport. This figure will give you an idea of how design works under different influences, this can be further expanded to link it with society and culture.
