WEEK 20 - Think smaller!

Hey HOMwork friends, happy Friday!

(If this is your first time joining us, take a peek at our Challenge Archive for all previous assignments.)

Hello! This week we welcome the incredible Adé Hogue as our guest HOMwork teacher! Adé is a Chicago-based designer and Art Director with a passion for custom lettering and photography. He enjoys exploring both the physical world and the artistic one. He has the wonderful job of using his hands to blend the beautiful with the practical. Doing more than pushing pixels, he gets to take ideas and turn them into something physical.

From Adé:

I, like most everyone else, am often crippled by the big goals I have. The big ideas and the big ambitions feel so unobtainable. So when I ask myself “what can I do to make the world a better place?" I find myself not knowing where to start. Inspired by a TEDTalk by the amazing Cleo Wade, I realized that we can all change the world. All we have to do is be brave enough to care.

First off, watch that TEDtalk then start to consider the everyday things you do, the small ways you impact the world around you and the power you have to change for the better! 

Caption Idea: Tell us about a time a small act changed your world!

Love,
Adé & Lauren

Lauren Hom is a designer, letterer, and educator. A self-proclaimed "artist with a business brain", she picked up hand lettering as a hobby while studying advertising in college. Over the next few years (and thanks to the power of the internet), she leveraged a few clever passion projects into a thriving design career.

When she's not designing, you can probably find her cooking an elaborate vegetarian meal at home or finally making her way through the niche craft supplies she bought last year.
