Abstract
This study examines the impacts of digitally rendered Saudi craft examples on inspiring student creativity within design education. The study focuses on how these examples of digital craft encourage a deeper understanding of Saudi heritage and its integration into modern design processes, emphasizing the necessity of preserving the region's cultural and historical identity. By using Saudi craft examples in digital ways, students can be motivated to explore and experience Saudi heritage in new and innovative ways, enhancing their understanding of the cultural values and principles rooted in Saudi society.
