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 the image we created in the last Photoshop tutorial, the Medieval Metal Text Effect in Photoshop. This image looks really cool as wallpaper and you can always do the tutorial again changing the word Abduzeedo.

The book suggestion of this week is a must read in my opinion, it's The Lean Startup: How Today's Entrepreneurs Use Continuous Innovation to Create Radically Successful Businesses by Eric Ries. I read this book in a few days and it was one of those books that you know they will be useful and will you help you to improve in your career.
