文化產業的概念已經成為國家發展的主軸，2002年政府宣布把「文化創意產業」列入「挑戰2008：國家發展重點計畫」。隨著「文化創意產業」的發展，具有地區文化特色的產品，在文化創意與商業操作，不但可以提高人民的文認同，更可以提高產品的附加價值，促進產業的發展。在全球化與科技進步的推波助瀾下，以區域文化特色為主，轉換為文化創意產品的產品設計模式蔚然成形。廟宇文化是臺灣重要的地方文化資產之一，因此，本研究以臺灣本土廟宇文化為研究出發點，透過文獻探討、實地訪問與問卷調查等方法，將臺灣廟宇文化的特色精神，予以轉化融入手機設計中，以取代當今手機設計。其結果可以提供設計師如何設計文化創意產品的參考。

The concept of Cultural Industry became the core idea of “Community Development” in the nation. In 2002, the government officially listed the “Cultural and Creative Industries” into the “Challenge 2008 National Development Plan”. With the Development Plan for the Cultural and Creative Industry, products with local cultural features are expected to be developed through a combination of art creativeness and commercial operations, which will not only deepen people’s cultural identities toward their own cultures but also increase the added value for these industries. Under the impetuses of globalization and technological advancement, and new designing model that centers on “local cultural features” has been formed, which convey ideas, symbols, and ways of life into cultural products. Temple culture is one of the main cultural properties in Taiwan.
