Una Estrella con Nombre - Illustrated Book & Immersive Experience
Editorial and immersive project originally developed as a Final Degree Project in Digital Design and Creation, and subsequently expanded and refined for self-publication in 2026 under Editorial Numancia.
The project comprises the complete creation of an illustrated book, from writing and visual development to editorial design and production, accompanied by an Android application that extends the book’s content through augmented and virtual reality experiences.
Throughout its development, the project brought together disciplines including editorial creation, illustration, graphic design, 3D modeling and texturing, interface design, programming, and interactive experience development in Unity, as well as audiovisual production and post-production.
The project seeks to expand the boundaries of traditional editorial formats by integrating digital and interactive content, establishing a connection between the physical book and different layers of content accessible through mobile devices.

Writing, Illustration & Editorial Design
The project involved the complete creation of the book, including writing, illustration development, editorial design, and layout.
The visual approach combines digital illustration and editorial composition to build a graphic universe coherent with the narrative. The illustrations, page structure, typography, cover, and other elements that make up the physical publication were all developed as part of the project.
The publication was subsequently reviewed and prepared for physical production as part of the self-publishing process initiated in 2026.
Application Design & Development
As an extension of the book, an Android application was developed to incorporate interactive content through augmented and virtual reality.
The experience design began with the planning of interaction flows and interface structure, which were subsequently implemented in Unity. The application allows users to activate digital content linked to the book’s illustrations, incorporating 3D models and immersive experiences that extend the narrative beyond the physical format.
The initial development was carried out as part of the Final Degree Project and was subsequently expanded and refined over the following years, incorporating new 3D models, interaction improvements, and various technical refinements until reaching the version used for the 2026 publication.
The project integrated interface design, programming, 3D modeling and texturing, and immersive experience development, using Unity as the primary development environment.
Promotional Material
As part of the project’s presentation and commercial launch, graphic and promotional materials were developed for participation in a Sant Jordi book fair alongside other authors.
The proposal included the design of bookmarks, a roll-up banner, and an informational standee, presenting both the book and its augmented and virtual reality components.
The promotional material was designed as an extension of the project’s visual identity, adapting its graphic and communication elements to different physical formats and applications.
