Design inspiration from Brand New
Happy Friday! Last week I went to the Brand New Conference in Nashville, and I came home with SO much design inspiration. I have a bunch of takeaways I want to share with you over the next few weeks around typography, branding, finding your style, experimenting, getting off the computer and making things, and one of my favorites: “Trust the weird shit.” But first, I wanted to share a few of my favorite designers and studios from the conference. If you're looking for some fresh design inspiration, go give them a follow: The Lads Studio — @thelads.studio Super Spicy — @superspicystudio Jen Wagner Type — @jenwagnertype Cymone Wilder / Simon and Moose — @simonandmoose Matey — @wearematey CLUB — @workofclub Forge — @designedbyforge Joe Ernst Design Studio - @joernst1 Timia Lewis - @seeyatimia Take a few minutes and look through their work. There is some seriously good stuff in there. More of my biggest takeaways from Brand New coming soon!

🎉 NEW RESOURCE: Adobe Essentials Course
Want to learn the Adobe programs used by professional graphic designers? I just added my complete Adobe essentials course to the Classroom! You'll find 3 beginner courses: 🎨 Adobe Illustrator 📸 Adobe Photoshop 📄 Adobe InDesign Each course walks you through the basics step-by-step and includes practice files for every lesson, so you can follow along and actually use what you're learning. These courses are for complete beginners. Why learn Adobe? I've used Adobe software professionally for more than 20 years. Illustrator, Photoshop, and InDesign remain core professional design tools, each serving a different purpose—from vector graphics and logos to image editing and page layout. Great design is about MUCH more than knowing software—but knowing how to use your tools is an important part of becoming a professional designer. 👉 Start the Adobe essentials courses: https://www.skool.com/cryestudio-design-5609/classroom/7bf32f7d?md=4b118db839fd45399e594ab483f119ee 👉 Don't have Adobe yet? You can try Creative Cloud free for 7 days here: https://adobe.prf.hn/click/camref:1101lKN6K Which program do you want to learn first: Illustrator, Photoshop, or InDesign? 👇
