Last week I was waiting hours in airports, as usual, I was wandering and checking out banners and signs when I found a beautiful Sony ad of a cel phone called Xperia. The thing that really caught my attention was the wallpaper of the phone. It was a colorful light bean crossing the screen . I really like the effect and thought to myself, that is a good idea for a tutorial.
So in this tutorial I will show you how to create a super easy but at the same time beautiful light effect.
The wallpaper of this week is a beautiful illustration created by Chris Haines, a designer and illustrator from Perth, Western Australia. We have already featured Chris a few times on Abduzeedo, but he has just updated his portfolio with some new and really cool works and sent us this wallpaper :)

The book suggestion of this week is a very inspiring one for those in love with vintage typography, it's called Scripts: Elegant Lettering from Design's Golden Age. It's definitely a book for when you need some extra motivation and inspiration.
