Picture Books
Illustrated stories that introduce big ideas through small, memorable moments.
Applodi Studio
A Hong Kong-based independent studio crafting books, mobile apps, and science-led educational games for children.
The studio
Applodi Studio is an independent, Hong Kong-based studio creating educational content for children — a small team of designers, illustrators, and parents building things we'd want our own children to grow up with.
We make picture books, activity books, mobile applications, and educational games. Our first titles and applications are currently in preparation for release in 2026.
Our first application is being designed as a broad discovery library for children, with more than 160 early topics under development across animals, nature, space, the universe, geography, everyday science and society.
Our work is curiosity-driven. We take scientific and natural themes — how things grow, how the world works, why the sky changes colour — and make them playful, tactile, and easy to love. Every illustration is hand-crafted, and every experience is designed with care.
Applodi Studio is currently building its first catalogue across print and digital formats, with a focus on quiet learning, family-friendly design, and content that can travel from page to screen without losing its sense of wonder.
Incorporated in Hong Kong — Company Registration No. 80379487.
What we do
Illustrated stories that introduce big ideas through small, memorable moments.
Coloring, cutting, collage, mazes and seek-and-find activities for quiet hands-on play.
Screen-respectful apps for reading, science discovery and short thinking challenges.
Mazes, memory games, route puzzles and logic challenges that reward patient thinking.
The same topic can begin as a pencil sketch, become a coloring page, turn into a puzzle, and later become a small interactive moment on screen.
Learning territories
The first application is being structured around a large set of short, child-friendly topics that can become coloring pages, activities, stories, games and screen-based learning moments.
A private research map: broad enough for future products, quiet enough to keep unreleased names and characters off the public site.
Inside the studio
Our early work begins with paper: drawing, coloring-page prototypes, cut-and-paste compositions, puzzle paths, seek-and-find boards and quiet visual thinking before anything is released publicly.
Thinking play
Our focus is paper-first: coloring, drawing, cutting, collage and small problem-solving activities children can do away from constant screens. Digital products are planned as a calm extension of that work, not a replacement for it.
Finding a path, planning ahead and trying again without pressure.
Observation games that build attention, vocabulary and patience.
Sliding blocks, matching, ordering and small reasoning challenges.
Current pipeline
Our initial work covers printable activity titles, early learning book concepts, thinking games, and a broad science discovery application for children and families. The first releases are planned for 2026.
Our approach
Curiosity is the engine of learning. We design to spark questions, not just answer them.
Hand-drawn illustrations and carefully designed experiences, made to last.
Made by parents, for families. We respect children's time, attention, and imagination.
Coming soon
We are preparing our first catalogue privately while product names and visual identities are being protected. For partnerships, platform verification or business enquiries, contact the studio directly.
