Think of all the business cards out there, exchanging hands in lucky encounters, potential-client conferences, and huge trade conferences. All of the simplest business cards serve a purpose: they supply data regarding you and your work, and that they hopefully encourage the receiver to follow up with you in a way. And as a part of your identity, a good identity card reflects your temperament.
We reached resolute fourteen designers and companies at the highest of their game to envision what their identity cards look like and to seek out what they believe makes a decent business card.
