会生长的书/Plant Growing Book



在我们的脑海中，书一直都被认为是静态的事物，印着字句、图片和所营造出的想象空间。为了打破这一传统概念，我给这本叫做《生命之书》的散文集的设计中加入了工业设计的部分。人们可以在书的左边种上任何他想种的植物，他们还得照顾好它，看着它生长。在这个过程中，读者不仅学到了生命的意义，同时他们还创造了生命。在植物下面还有8盏小LED灯，晚上这本书就成了一盏台灯，有着植物的叶子反射出的独一无二的灯光。

Books are always considered as static objects in people’s mind, transferring through words, pictures and imagination they produce. To break this traditional impression, I embed some industrial design elements in this prose florilegium which name is “book on life”. People can plant whatever they like in the left side of the book, they should care for it and watch it grow. During this process readers do not only learn the meaning of life but they create life themselves. 8 small LED lights are fixed on the bottom of the plants, in the evening the book can be turned on to become a lamp with the unique light reflect from the leaves.
