About Dear How to:
We’re a group of information designers who are always thinking out of the box or… rethinking how to make the box. We love coming up with ways of explaining things such as how to walk against the crowd or how to look awake.
So, inspired by Giorgia Lupi and Stefanie Posavec’s Dear Data project we decided that we could try a similar experiment with our own skills. Each week for one year, each of us draws instructions on a blank postcard and sends it in turn to one or the other.
The only rule is NO TEXT!
