Critical Review

Snooze or Schmooze

Preparing for the trip to Meredith I created a business card to carry with me just in case the opportunity arose. I cannot deny that they are lacking much creativity, but in such a situation is professionalism outweighed by innovation, or vice versa?


I chose to use elements that reflected my personality and my design style. I appreciate white space and subtle color. I place great importance on typography and layout. By pairing the vibrant turpuoise with a subtle yellow stripe and a type similar to my own handwriting I played up my simplistic design style and my own personal introvert and calm personality.

I played aroung with other fonts and other photographs that would create the same balance between simplicity and attention to details. I hope to create multiple business cards by the end of the semester and while I think this first concept could use some redesign I will definitely keep it as an option.
