One of the most important reasons of attaining education or knowledge is not just to have a better understanding of matters around us, but also to be able to grow as individuals and expand our horizon of emotions. While most reading in modern times is deemed as an intellectual process with scores of facts & a bulk of information being stuffed into the brain, in reality reading a book is supposed to be a liberating experience that makes an individual a better person. Every piece of literature has a certain quality that one can learn from it. (Some just show you how not to write a book)
Eric, a young designer, has come up with this refreshing idea of making the process of reading a book all the more interactive. The book designed by Eric is called the ‘Growing Book’ and comes with a special little place to grow plants in it. The design of the book is rather simple and it allows you to not only to use it creatively, but also make it green. The book has a nice little look to it.
The book is not at all complicated in design or usage. It allows the reader to not only read through a book but also see the process of life take place in front of his very eyes. The book is a perfect gift for kids, to teach them about environmental awareness and to make the process of learning great fun. It is a simple and effective concept of learning put to work by some innovative designing.
