Inspiration
Here are some inspiring business cards that I have found using the internet... These will help to give an idea into the colour and the style of our business cards.
colour palates
As we spoke about with the layout of our business cards. I have produced them in different colours which can be discuss which one would fit for are business.
Layout design- Mock ups.
Here are some quick hand drawn mock ups of how our business cards could look.
The golden ratio
The golden ratio is something that a designer can use to help to give a level of composition within our design work. It is also know and to be based around the Fibonacci sequence. These Fibonacci number are then used to form a rectangular guide which can allow us to create some great design work.
Here below is an example of the golden ratio being used to create a business card. As we can see the golden ration helps to give that composition and space within our design work.
Fonts for business card
kerning allows us to adjust space between each individual letter while adjusting the space between each letter.Myriad Pro is a high readability font. It gives a clean and neat look of the uppercase letters and the rounded tails such as on the Y gives of a stylish and professional look. The font can be used in several styles such as extended,light and semi-bold. When using the kerning tool on this it allows the font to still be readable and not making the whole font with in a design look like a mess.
