Archetypes

Archetypes is a design principle which is about the common pattern of a design across culture . It is like the unconscious pattern which only will be visible by observing certain similarity that something has no matter where the character or product is found. The concept or archetype is common in storytelling and it is related to a brand associating itself to a certain trademark or sort of character. According to Jung's theory "Archetypes are the symbols, the patterns of thoughts that rise out of the collective unconscious".
