Plant Growing Book by Eric Zhang
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.

Morgan says
would the light under the plants not fry their little roots?
Pet says
If it was an incandescent or halogen light source it would, but if it was a LED light source the plants would be fine, and get better quality light.

sounds like an intriguing idea, but mixing soil and paper doesn’t seem like a good idea

How cool, a living book. I like how you said this part: “they should care for it and watch it grow” that’s a very nice thought
