The people of Divrigi have forgotten or shelved some of their cultural elements over time. In addition, there are many different kinds of jewellery and accessories in the culture of the Divrigi. These jewellery and accessories, which were forgotten over time, were used only on special occasions, while they continued to be kept in chests for the rest of the time. This tradition and culture is a potential point for a project that can be effective in reconciling the people with the Divrigi and brings people together. While people are involved in the production and design process with workshops, they also have the opportunity to earn money with online sales. In addition, while the green areas it contains are a place where the people of the region can spend time together, the concept of the square inside has turned into a potential place for gathering. Throughout the project, materials specific to the natural region were made with a modern application. The same applies to the jewellery and accessories produced.
