“It’s through mistakes that you actually can grow. You have to get bad in order to get good.” – Paula Scher

This quote is the definition of my design process. I try to learn from my mistakes as all of them bring new knowledge in life, moving me towards my dreams and professional success. Even the biggest mistakes must not subdue me, same as success, they provide an important experience for my future designing career. And my future begins with the end of this course.
