Last week I was working on a project that needed a Flash animation, nothing really complicated, but I thought a nice animated background with some light effects would work just fine. With that in mind I used a few ellipses, some blur and blend modes to create the effect I wanted. The result was really cool and the best thing is that the process was super easy.
The wallpaper of this week is a beautiful image created by François Hoang in collaboration with James White. François is a very talented 25-year-old self-taught freelance graphic designer from Montreal, Canada. With this wallpaper he won the Abduzeedo World Collabs 3: James White. His design was selected among more than 80 designs from all around the globe.
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.
