Lucas Seidenfaden – Thoughts

While many of us are stuck at home with limited opportunity to leave the house I started thinking about the kinds of activities that could be fun and intellectually stimulating. Obviously the opprtunity to learn something new or skill up on a discipline we already know is too good to pass up.

Similar to 36 Days of Type or some of the numerous design or development calendars I wanted to create something that would be both new to me and achieveable in the given amount of time.
