About 24 Solar Terms Mobilapplikationsillustration

24 Solartermer är en samling dynamiska illustrationer skapade för en mobil sökapplikation. De 24 solartermerna delar in året i perioder av nästan lika längd och har väglett jordbruk och vardagsliv i Kina i århundraden. Illustrationerna använder traditionella kinesiska målningstekniker och färger för att visa årstider, temperatur, väder och levande natur. Användare når sidorna genom att söka på namnet på en solarterm eller ett relaterat sökord. En sammanställd sektion längst ner på varje sida länkar till videor, nyheter och uppslagsverksposter. Konstverket anpassar sig till alla mobila skärmstorlekar.
