Today’s Business Cards
March 6th, 2010
Does your companies business card look plain or a little too “corporate”? Now maybe it is time to change your business card. Today, cards that are not different or memorable are simply tossed away. You want your business card to be one that a person will keep, even if they don’t need your companies services. You want your card to have that strong of an impact.
How do you know if your card is working? Take a look at your card. If you don’t keep looking at it for more than a few seconds, chances are your clients are not either.
There are multiple ways to get your business card to stand out, even on a small budget. Different sizes, special paper or coating, embossing or even using a die cut. Make sure you, your company and your business card stands above all the rest with a business card refresh.

Color Theory for Designers: The Meaning of Color
November 6th, 2009
I came across what I think is a pretty good read.
Color in design is very subjective. What evokes one reaction in one person may evoke a very different reaction in somone else. Sometimes this is due to personal preference, and other times due to cultural background. Color theory is a science in itself. Studying how colors affect different people, either individually or as a group, is something some people build their careers on. And there’s a lot to it. Something as simple as changing the exact hue or saturation of a color can evoke a completely different feeling. Cultural differences mean that something that’s happy and uplifting in one country can be depressing in another.
