About the author
Dominique Ehrhard is credited with two activity books built around cardboard construction, Architek and Archipop, both published by Schiffer Kids in 2019 and 2020. Each book ships with dozens of precut cardboard pieces, from 85 in Archipop to 95 in Architek, along with step-by-step diagrams for assembling them into architectural models; Archipop's models draw on the work of artist Hundertwasser, while Architek leaves the structures more open-ended. The pieces are designed to be built, taken apart, and rebuilt into different forms, making the books reusable rather than single-use craft kits. They are aimed at children and families interested in hands-on design and construction play rather than at readers looking for conventional illustrated or text-based books, and sit closer to architecture and design education than to any occult or spiritual subject despite their catalogue placement.
