I aim to… Continue reading Summative – Fringe

So, finally got back from New York. I’m exhausted but it was great!

offline source As our illustrated report will be created using InDesign and we get full creative freedom on the layout and such, it was time for me to read books and use online sources like pinterest for inspiration.
