The book's design revolves around photography of children in the Yellow Sheep River Project in China, where the children's drawings of their visions of the future were copied onto earthen village walls. The heavy stock paper of the book cover and coarse paper inside the volume echo the dusty rural environment. Prints that flow page to page create continuity and associations with winding walls in the second part. A concertina book with two-sided gate fold paper presents the children's drawings alongside the paintings on the wall in the fifth part. Hand detailing and five-color letterpress printing evoke premium quality.
