Good books on web design are hard to find. Many of the best focus on user experience rather than making things look nice. For that reason, I’ve added a couple of online courses to this curriculum.

My hope is that the other studies I’m doing in general design, graphic design, and typography will build a solid foundation for creating aesthetically pleasing web designs. For this reason, I intend to tackle those topics first.
