One letter
a week

Every week I write to founders and the people who build with them about design, launches, AI and running a small studio.

What's in a letter

One subject a week, from the work my studio is doing right now. Short enough to read with a coffee, with the numbers left in.

  1. Channel 01

    Numbers from real work

    How 100 startup homepages scored, what a 22-second launch video did, and how long a shop and a brand identity really took.

    From No. 002 // No. 003 // No. 005

  2. Channel 02

    Running a small studio

    What clients are really buying, how a project runs week by week, and what I'd change if we made it again.

    From No. 006 // Week 01

  3. Channel 03

    AI, from daily use

    Where it helps, where it still falls short, and what it's changing at my studio. Week 01 has 8 interactive figures you can turn and toggle.

    From Week 01

  4. Channel 04
