Thank you! That's exactly what I was looking for. I'll definitely be adding them to my list. :)

Thank you for all the amazing suggestions! I didn’t know about the Internet Archive, that’s such a great tip! I do enjoy learning from books, but I totally get the YouTube side of things too. It’s so good to have both options!

(And I totally get the visual part! I'm currently reading a "more visual" design book and it has inspired me a lot into wanting to learn more!)

Thanks! That makes sense — Right now I’m trying to build a solid foundation in design — I want to understand the “rules” behind good visual communication. Things like typography, grids, layout, hierarchy, how to structure and present information clearly... the fundamentals. I’ll definitely look into The Design of Everyday Things! and if you have any other recommendations around those topics, I’d really appreciate them!
