Design Details
- Unique Properties
- "Dino Ancient Art Adventure" recreates one of China's top ten famous paintings, "Along the River During the Qingming Festival," in 3D paper art, enhancing the enjoyment and immersion of reading. Through Dino's adventure, the book combines historical, engineering techniques, and cultural customs depicted in the scroll, offering children a fresh way to understand history. It presents the beauty of the world to children in an artistic manner.
- Inspiration

- Realization and Technology
- The book incorporates a variety of materials to enhance the richness of the reading experience. Transparent PVC material is used to reduce obstruction of the book's content while providing durability that surpasses paper, allowing for repeated installation and removal of the artwork.The use of VR glasses enables users to experience 3D audio and visual effects, complementing the three-dimensional paper art products.
- Operation and Interaction
- In the "Dino Ancient Art Adventure" besides offering a rich reading experience, there are also two sets of interactive handicrafts included. Energetic and lively children can actively engage in the bookmaking process through hands-on activities.
