Studio File

A small Paris-based project built around better practice questions.

Ligne & Sens began in 2025 after the same frustration appeared in informal practice sessions: learners could tell that a page felt inconsistent but often could not identify which variable to change.

Why diagnosis became the method

There were already many beautiful alphabets to copy. The missing step was a practical way to turn “this looks wrong” into a testable question. The project therefore organises learning around observable contrasts, short controlled drills and written self-checks.

New activities are reviewed for whether they isolate a real variable, whether the learner can observe the result without specialist equipment, and whether the task can be completed with a modest home setup.
