2019 Roundup: my favourite pieces on freelancing and design
Recapping my best ideas + inspiration from others + what to look forward to in 2020
Just seven sleeps until Christmas. Where did 2019 go!?
This year I shared 40 stories on design, freelancing, entrepreneurship, and creativity. Not quite matching my one-article-per-week goal, but not bad either for a designer very busy with client work, plus a family with two rambunxious boys.
Professionally, I had a rewarding year working on many large and meaningful design projects from a handful of wonderful clients. I hope your business went well this year too.
Here’s a recap of some of the favourite pieces that sprang out of my head this year. Which was your favourite?
