Poppu is a portable and tactile paper-based Go game. A single sheet of paper replaces both the traditional game board and Go stones. Its design enhances the tactile experience of Go Chess by distinguishing between the die-cut textures of black and white stones, making it accessible to people who are blind or have vision loss.
This design concept was awarded the Red Dot: Best of the Best in 2021.
