Lily is rousing me from my winter hibernation. She dragged me out of bed to go to Starbucks and do something productive. Not feeling in the least bit interested in being productive, I was doing some research on typography. I was curious about Vietnamese typography, and noticed that the word/name HƯƠNG has hook diacritics (dấu móc) that reminded me of Pucca’s hairbuns. And so I was compelled to make this. I wonder what she looks like in traditional Vietnamese attire.
