Many stories refuse to be held captive by their pages, but when it comes to Silvia Hijano's editorial projects, they literally jump right out at you! As founder of the Libracos studio, her speciality is creating paper worlds using a combination of three-dimensional techniques and traditional binding.
In this course, Silvia breaks down the creative process of her craft step by step, showing you how to compose an interactive pop-up book that springs to life with the help of the reader.
