I think learning about typography would be a good stepping stone to learning design in general.
Start off by reading Typography for Lawyers and iA’s post “Web Design is 95% Typography”. Both links have great advice and talk about the fundamentals of typography and type on the web.
If the last links perked your interest than I recommend picking up The Elements of Typographic style. It is a great bible on the subject at the macro level.
