Where the name comes from

Every letter in the hero was cut from this sheet. Three of each, so the same word never sets twice the same way.

A scrapbook alphabet: three hand-cut variants of every letter from A to Z, in mixed colours and typefaces. 08

04 / Me

One fear:
being linear

I am Shrey Mehra, a specialist in generalisation who has always had one fear: being linear.Also the same person who saved their company more than 200K AUD by finding a legal loophole, because an idea arrived while taking a shower.That is who I am, and that is why this exists.
