We wanted to use technology to enhance information and make a more interesting and memorable platform for learning. We aimed to create a multimedia experience that would engage different types of learners using tactility and visuals. Through an iterative prototyping process we arrived at the idea of making a group of boats built from a system of parts

They wanted children to imagine their own worlds and design their own unique artworks. We made an online tool that allowed children to build up their own island from a suite of illustrations.
