Share your side project that became full time job

almost 5 years ago from Shea Lewis, Web Designer

  • Kirill ZakharovKirill Zakharov, almost 5 years ago

    Friend needed some design help with his stock photography side project. He was using Courier everywhere. It wasn't the best font for interfaces, so I swapped it for a sans-serif and started developing a design system from there. I also thought it would be cool to be able to collect photos or something.

    This was over 4 years ago. It's been my full-time job since.

        I'm assuming Kirill is the designer co-founder at unsplash
