This study delves into the intricate intersection of design, culture, art, and philosophy in the development of a product aimed at bolstering civil defense efforts during flood emergencies in Saudi Arabia. Utilizing an interdisciplinary approach that integrates insights from philosophy, cultural studies, and civil defense strategies, the research investigates the underlying causes of flood-related challenges and their socio-cultural implications. Through a meticulous questionnaire-based methodology involving 32 initial participants and 22 in the subsequent phase, the study uncovers prevalent issues within current civil defense practices. Statistical analysis unveils the complex interplay between societal perceptions, cultural norms, and technological innovations in disaster management. Three innovative design solutions emerge, integrating philosophical principles and cultural insights to effectively address the specific challenges inherent in flood rescue scenarios. Informed by user feedback and guided by philosophical concepts of resilience and adaptability, the optimal framework for prototype development and testing is identified. The resulting watercraft prototype not only showcases technological advancement but also embodies cultural considerations and artistic sensibilities. Rigorous testing validates its technical feasibility and cultural resonance, underscoring the efficacy of tailored solutions in mitigating the impact of natural disasters. This research offers valuable insights to stakeholders in disaster management, fostering advancements at the nexus of design, culture, art, and philosophy.
