Last month I met some guys that are working on a really nice project that involved an iPhone app. So they invited me to design the web site, called Wellknown.as. I loved the idea and started looking for references and inspiration so I could start the design itself.
So in this tutorial I will show you a little bit of how I created it using Fireworks. Of course you can do the same thing in Photoshop, the commands will change a bit but the process is practically the same.
The wallpaper of this week is an image I created for a poster and also a tutorials for the upcoming Abduzeedo book. The book will be available soon and we will keep you posted, so stay tuned.
The idea behind this image was create a vintage style poster playing with the word ADBZ. It was sort of inspired by Mondrian from my earlier sketches.

The book suggestion of this week is about typography and it is an essential book for those starting out their design career or interested in learning the elements of this trade. The Elements of Typographic Style is the perfect book to start 2012 improving your design skills :)
