Questioning Media
We put ourselves in a challenge: trying to reinvent the media of the book. We're not the first in doing that, but we wanted to put our contribution to this research.
We started to ask ourselves how we read a book, every culture has its own way, but every culture has the same media. The book. What is a book? A book, is an adventure, is knowledge, is many things. Every one of us experience the media of book its on way, but all of us ends up with the same result: it becomes part of us, an adding layer to our person. our personality.

Siddhartha
As a book, we've chosen Siddhartha from Hermann Hesse. This book perfectly embodied the meaning that we wanted to transmit. The book tells about Siddhartha that goes through three main contexts where he experiences three main lessons:
Forest - Poverty
City - Luxury
Forest - Poverty
City - Luxury
River - Spirituality
From these experiences, Siddhartha is able to wear a new layer of knowledge and becomes a Buddha
Dress
The dress choice and its material were really important.
Giving the book's significance, the dress and the material had to represent the synthesis of the experiences and the significance of the book in its entirety.
The dress had to celebrate the layer of experience that this book gives to the reader.
