It seems that the past 3 years had a boom of retro design, starting with the "cosmic neon lightning" 80's aesthetic that I think most of you are already bored about. Not just because it became a trend, but also because everyone with a photoshop could emulate one. So here's the thing, this new retro wave more focused on 50's and 60's design and illustration seems to be really different, why? Because most of it is hand drawn, and when it to comes to drawing, you wouldn't believe how many designers can't do it.
The wallpaper of this week is a beautiful illustration from Chris Halasca, an Art Director from Sydney, Australia and an Abduzeedo reader. We highly recommend you visit his website at http://www.chrishalaska.com/. Also we've received some really cool wallpapers from other readers, thank you very much and you will publish them soon. If you have a great image for our wallpaper of the week let us know.

The holiday season is here and it’s time to get together with our family and friends, celebrate and get ready for the new year that is about to start. As we see sites with gift guides all over the web we decided to post the Abduzeedo 2011 Gift Guide because it’s always nice to start a new year extremely motivated. So in this first post I will list some books.
