WRWD Concept: Write, Read, Walk, and Draw Daily
The WRWD Concept: Write, Read, Walk, and Draw Daily—is a simple as possible way to get you throughout the week.
In an era of digital distractions and our demanding lifestyles, I establish habits that help me get through the week:
Write – I am learning to write, and I do it daily. Sometimes, it is one word sometimes, I manage a whole essay.
Read – I am not much of a reader, but I try to find a few articles a day.
Walk – I tend to walk every day, and it is good for my well-being.
Draw – I sketch everything as part of my work process.

Have You Ever Tipped a Designer?
We tip for almost everything—meals, cab rides, haircuts. It's a small but meaningful gesture that says, “I see your effort. I value your time.” But in the world of design, tips or extra appreciation? That’s a rare thing.
Sometimes we all need a little push
To start something is always hard. Whether you have experience or if this is something new, it takes a lot of effort, strength, courage, and money.
Side projects
Our work is not easy. You need to stay excited all the time, and that is impossible. You need to find something that drives you—things that blow out some steam.
To all the misfits who jumped to freelancing
We’ve been broke. Burned out. Ghosted. Underpaid. But we still say no to shitty jobs. We’d rather spend endless hours on a good one — a real one — that actually means something to us. Even when it’s hard. Especially when it’s hard. Because we love this shit — and we’re damn good at it.
I take it personally
Sometimes I get involved in a branding project where I accidentally bump into people who think halfway there is a good start.
Good design is for good clients
We have had this signature for a long time. And it is still valid. Perhaps the only thing that changed is that we can change the client's term to friends.
Team 2 team
Business design is shifting from human 2 human to team 2 team; this is becoming more and more important; team spirit produces more results than any individual effort. B2B
It is not ok to fail
It is not okay to fail; it never was and never will be. As simple as that. I am not saying you should not try, but rethink twice before you do.
