"Materialistic"
"Cut-it-out"
Close to graduating, its time to start thinking about my own identity and style. In a competitive field such as graphic design, it's important to show differentiation and to stand out. A business card can be a representation of those things. More importantly, it gives a first impression of your style and who you are as a designer.These are some of the business cards that i loved. Each one is unique, and highly relevant to it's field in terms of idea, material, layout, typography... The ideas never end. It's amazing how you can do so much with a small piece of paper.
Looking at many different business cards got me thinking of my own style, how much I've developed of it over the past 2 years, and where I'd like to take it over the next term. Each of the cards is an inspiration towards a different style that i would like to experiment with and apply in my major project.
I think if i had to choose one of the cards that is most likely to be mine, it would be the first. Just type on blank lined paper.
Wow! There really are some wacky business cards out there!!
ReplyDeleteWhere did you find them all?
I lvoe the monkey nuts one - but there's a huge danger of it being devoured by a money....or even a hungry business man in a dull meeting...
The lego and matches designs are also very fun! But the lego one has the slight anomalie that it wont fit in your wallet/ purse.
The comb deisgn represents its owner well - as it's symbolic of their occupation!
Great blog though!! Fantastic inspiration!!
These designs are the sort that make you think - 'Why didn't I think fo that!' and reminds me of my CV last year - which came out of a bean can!
