We have been posting tutorials pretty much every week for the past 6 years. We believe tutorials are an amazing way to learn how to use the software we need to do our design work. But as you can see, software is just a part of the design process, important but without a good foundation and design principles you won’t be able to translate a good idea into a cohesive design...even if you are a master of Illustrator, Photoshop or any other software.
The wallpaper of this week is an image created by Anthony Harmon; the creative director of SlashTHREE and Aharmon Design Group. Aharmon Design Group is a multi-disciplinary design firm based out of Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Founded by Anthony Harmon in 2007, the business grew quickly into a fully established, award winning studio. We have since been privileged to work with clients from around the world, large and small, in a variety of media.

The book suggestion of this week is a very inspiring one for those in love with vintage typography, it's called Scripts: Elegant Lettering from Design's Golden Age. It's definitely a book for when you need some extra motivation and inspiration.
About the book
