“Gingerbooks is a passion project of mine. Gingerbooks are hand-crafted pocket-sized notebooks. Originally, I was prompted by Aaron Draplin’s “Pretty Much Everything.” He is a popular graphic designer and creator of Field Notes. In his book, he encouraged his audiences to make pocket-sized notebooks from scrap paper. So, with fabric thread taken from the sewing kit, I made my first pocket-sized notebooks. They have since evloved. The logo represents a milestone, it is the first logo I hand lettered and then vectorized. Sadly, Gingerbooks isn’t an actual product; it's a hobby; something I enjoy doing. I introduced stickers so Gingerbooks can be decorated."
