Last week I decided to come up with a new variation of the Abduzeedo symbol, as I have been doing this every year pretty much since the beginning of the blog. So for this year my ideas was to create something more minimalistic with a sort of vintage style. I also wanted to reduce the light effects, make them very subtle.
So in this tutorial/case study I will show you how I created the Abduzeedo 2011 symbol.
The wallpaper of this week is an image created by Christopher Raymond, a 24 year old Boise based artist about to graduate in the fields of Design and illustration. Christopher is currently working in a studio called Yellow Box Studio as designer, illustrator and creative juicer during the day and diving into the deep end at night experimenting with different hand drawn and digital mediums.

The book suggestion of this week is very inspiring, especially for those out there fans of LPs. The book is called The Art of the LP: Classic Album Covers 1955-1995 and it has a great variety of cover design styles from punk rock to pop all divided by thematic chapters.
