   Fig 1,2 (above) details from Hansel González's braille story posters.

Hansel González created a series of fairy tale posters including the tale of Little Red Riding Hood in association with the Caja Mágica Foundation in Venezuela.

Braille Stories 'stories are meant to be felt' is a campaign to invite people to donate Braille books for blind children. We created posters with classic stories translated into Braille and took them to schools where the children could feel these fairy stories that we all read.

     Fig 1(above): Pop Up book by Sarah Petersen 

"This project was one of the most exciting and challenging projects I've tackled thus far. Without knowing how to make a pop-up book, I set off on an a path full or research and trial-and-error mockups to create the finished piece. Each element within the pages was hand cut with an X-ACTO knife and glued carefully in place. Several elements have multiple layers to create interesting dimensions and shadows. I limited the colors to black, white and red, which worked perfectly for the story The Little Red Riding Hood. Thanks to my family (for putting up with the mess), and my friends who gave incredible feedback throughout the process."  Sarah Petersen.
Sarah Petersen is a graphic designer from Salt lake City who graduated from Utah University. This pop up book was her first and feature a kind of visual coding like used in a map key for the characters of the grandmother and Little Red, that you can see in the throat of the wolf.
