_ Claire's diploma project takes place in graphic design but in product design too. Indeed, Claire no longer considers the book as support of writing but as a area of reading. It’s by manipulation and ownership of the book the reader makes the author's imagination alive. The book is therefore subject to read but also to experiment. Reading and is not only visual, it is also sensitive. We need to give a physical body of the literary work.
_ In considering the book as a space readers can immerse themselves and take the universe of text.

Few examples :
_ Let's take example of Claire's "Raven and Fox" (Jean de La Fontaine). Here, the book becomes the body of the characters. They take life by the book and manipulation of the reader. The player can become the raven. The book serves to mask to create a small theater.

For collections of Haïku (Japanese short poem), we are in a significant discovery book that echoed the poetic world of haiku. Color and light. Throughout the reading, the book unfolds like a flower. The book is the mirror of poems.
