Chacho Puebla‘s grandmother never gave him advice regarding social media etiquette, but he loves her anyway.
The Madrid-based designer writes that as he gets older, he thinks about the advice he’ll give to his grandchildren.

He’s hoping his words of wisdom will be a little more relevant.
His latest project — a collaboration with his sister and photographer named Lula — is a series of advice he wishes he’d been given by his grandmother, with his grandmother’s sister as the subject.
