Arbres-Mondes
This project aims to continue our reflection on the relationship between humans and nature through the universal archetype of the tree, which connects the three components of the Universe: the celestial, terrestrial, and underground worlds, a concept present in many cultures worldwide.
It consists of an enriched digital book in web format, a giant augmented pop-up tree, a collection of illustrated poems, «Pages d’Arbres,» published by the Centre de Créations pour l’Enfance de Tinqueux, and an audio tour. The webbook is at the heart of the project and can be directly accessed through the website:

The Baobab
The Baobab, known as the «Tree of Stories», has enormous cultural, social, and symbolic value. It is the heart of rituals concerning birth or death. It is where people meet, listen to the griot…
The giant augmented sound, popup tree of Baobab is part of the transmedia project «Trees-Worlds», which aims to extend the reflection on man’s relationship with nature through the universal archetype of the tree. The viewer is invited to animate the animals of the baobab
ecosystem (hornbill, monkey, and hare) in augmented reality to listen to reimagined tales from East Africa, narrated and set to music. A sensory journey through listening and sight at the heart of the pop-up!

The Dragon’s Blood Tree of Socotra
The Dragon’s Blood Tree of Socotra, or «Sangre de Drago,» is shrouded in mystery and appears to come from another space and time. Its leaves, turned towards the sky, collect moisture from the mists, essential to the survival of the fauna and flora. Its trunk, once opened, «bleeds» and releases a red resin… Witness to its importance to the Socotri people, numerous legends and poems are dedicated to it. But today, this mythical tree is in danger of extinction.
The viewer is invited to animate in augmented reality the animals of the dragon’s blood tree ecosystem (snake, Egyptian vulture, and chameleon) and listen to myths in French and Arabic, voiced over and accompanied by music from the mysterious island of Socotra, a UNESCO World Natural Heritage Site…
As a bonus: an invitation to discover Socotri poetry.
Languages : French and Arab

Among these species, 41% of amphibians, 13% of birds, and 27% of mammals are threatened with extinction worldwide. This is also true for 37% of sharks and rays and 36% of reef-building corals.

The Floating Cities
While 72% of the Earth’s surface is covered by water and the ocean produces between 50% and 75% of the oxygen we breathe, creating new spaces in the oceans is an idea that has gained momentum, moving from utopia to the study and implementation of concrete projects. But can we imagine environmentally friendly floating cities?
In the «Floating Cities» mural, the viewer is invited to stroll through different floating cities composed of architectural elements and devices (biomimicry, urban reorganization, presence of plants in the city, etc.) that provide answers to current ecological and societal challenges. Augmented reality animated scenes are coupled with documentary or poetic sound content, inviting the public to think about or question the city of tomorrow.
