A couple of weeks ago Amanda (@amlight) published a few articles showing stylish posters and albums with a very retro style, very simple but at the same time really cool. The articles really inspired me so I decided to create an Abduzeedo poster for myself just to play with Illustrator and Photoshop.
So in this tutorial I will show you how to create a very cool poster in just 10 steps. We will use Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator, but you may use other tools. I'm working on the Pixelmator version as well.
The wallpaper of this week is an amazing image created by Adam Spizak and the Artis Navi team. The ArtisNavi is a blog created by Gregory Machon and Adam Navi to be a creative outlet for presenting and sharing some cool and interesting ideas that they found inspiring, promising and sexy enough to share with us.
For more information about ArtisNavi visit their blog at http://www.artisnavi.com/. There's also a case study showing how this wallpaper was created.
The book suggestion of this week is about branding and it's a recommendation from one of our favorite graphic designers out there, Roger Oddone. The book is called Designing Brand Identity: An Essential Guide for the Whole Branding Team and it covers everything you need to know about branding, from its definition to how come up with the most efficient strategy.
