This is my first tutorial ever so bear with me! I wanted to thank Abduzeedo for giving me this great opportunity. I am going to show you guys how to do my own submission for the Abduzeedo World Collabs 3 : James White. First let me warned you, that I won't be telling you all the steps but I'll be giving you hints that will help you make your "own" creation.
The wallpaper of this week is a light effect I created a few weeks ago inspired by an XPeria ad I saw while I was waiting for a flight at the airport. It's basically a light beam with a colorful gradient blended with it.

The book suggestion of the week is one of my favorites, it's called Typology: Type Design From Victorian Era to the Digital Age and it covers a lot of art history always linking with types and typography. It's a must read for those starting out their careers or even willing to dust off their typology and typography skills.
