There is the notion of you live what you learn. The environment you  
work in day-in, day-out, absolutely effects the work you do,  
especially as a designer.

Want another parallel real world example. Look no further than  
endless covers of supermodels on magazine stands. There have been  
countless studies to document this. The argument is that being  
surrounded by these images every day influences a woman's self-image,  
their expectation of what is normal, of what is expected, and what  
they should aim for.

The same thing goes for the environment you're in day-in, day-out.  
Being surrounded by it every day... you can't help be be influenced  
by it.

In theory, theory and practice are the same.
In practice, they are not.
