I think this is the first edible “business card” I’ve featured on this site. From NYC-based Mikella Lowe comes this little gem. The aim of my business card is to create a memorable experience and leave a sweet impression on the people I meet. I believe that engagement starts with the first interaction and as [...]

Emiland de Cubber is a presentation designer. His business card capitalises on the still-lingering metaphor of the “slide” in a Powerpoint or Keynote presentation. The card is actually not a card, but an actual Kodak slide with two stickers for his name and contact info. Pictured here is the box to house his slide-cards. None [...]

Today I spotted two cards from Broke Bike Alley, a repair shop in British Columbia. Here, the approach is one of those functional cards. First is the wrench-card, which helps you tighten up your nuts and bolts in a hurry. And next is the tire patch. Presumably softer, lighter, and thinner than the wrench, you [...]
3D cards are a touchy subject — they can be clever, and they can easily go to far. I like this card from TAM Cargo, because it folds flat to serve as a conventional card. That way, if you have no patience to carry around a miniature shipping box in your wallet, you don’t have [...]
An electronics engineer whose business card is not only an actual circuit board, but it’s a USB thumb drive. Useful, yet bulky. I’m afraid this isn’t the first one of these I’ve seen, and thus, I’m not terribly impressed. Bold, though, because this has to cost a pretty penny.

This design for a dog tag-style card was sent in by Christofer Johnson of Luice Design. Copyright issues aside, I think the US Army eagle crest makes an appropriate edition for these. The tags are laser etched and die cut, on stainless steel. Corners are rounded so as to avoid the slicing of fingers!

Don’t say it’s not unique. Jessica Delfino, comedienne and musician, has produced whistles that serve two purposes: they ward off would-be rapists and help serve as business cards. I mean, how many people have whistles as business cards? For that matter, how many people are promoting themselves on the no-rape platform?

What better way to promote your fabrication business than with a small machine disguised as a business card. In this case, it’s probably not the most practical device, but we have to admire the novelty of it. Right? Cardnetics is the company behind this craziness, and apparently this is what they do.
The card of illustrator Christopher Soprano isn’t so much a card, but a sort of paper puppet/miniature POP display. It’s pretty cool. At first, it looks like a regular card. The typography is whimsical but with a sense of sophistication. There are elements of hand-crafted goodness, and a bit of stampy action. And then they [...]

AR Business Card from James Alliban on Vimeo. No denying that this card is in a category by itself. The clever use of Augmented Reality in everyday applications, like business cards, it only going to grow in the near future. I, for one, welcome our new electronic disembodied overlords. via Josh Spear » PS. if [...]

… is another man’s card. Rubber stamps can create a business card out of just about anything. Appropriate if you’re in the business of recycling, reclaimed materials, or anything eco-conscious. via Direct Daily via Quipsologies »
