Banks and Business Cards

Banks and Business Cards

A couple months ago Jacob Cass of Just Creative Design introduced a new inspirational logo design site to the public, Logo Designer Blog. It is a great blog full of inspirational discussion and information pertaining to branding, logo, and identity design. I recommend subscribing to this blog as well as taking some time to read through some of the great articles written by an assortment of other designers.

Jacob has published an article I’ve written for Logo Designer Blog and I’d like to share it was all of my readers: The Power and Meaning Behind Bank Logos. If you find the article interesting in the slightest bit please feel free to join in the discussion by commenting on the article. I’d love to hear what some of my readers have to say about the featured bank logos and any other opinions pertaining to the topic.

On another note, Brian Hoff of The Design Cubicle has also done an amazing round-up article. It is an article featuring 50 Creative Business Cards of 50 Creative Graphic Designers. I was very honored to be featured on this list right along with other amazing designers. It is quite the collection of business cards and chuck full of inspiration. The diversity of the business cards range from large to small, letterpress to diecut, solid color to multicolor, and so much more. The diversity of these cards is inspirationally overwhelming and is worth browsing through once or five times! Be sure to check out many other useful articles posted by Brian. While you are there go ahead and subscribe to The Design Cubicle.

    Thanks for the heads-up! I will be checking it out! I’m hoping my card design proposal wins my bosses over and go for letterpress with foil block stamping! ;)

    Thanks for sharing the article with your readers also Antonea. I also liked your business card, really stood out… but then again I do have a strange fetish for pink as you may have noticed.
