Mixing Work With Play – Creative Business Cards


Although my focus as a contributor to Design Tavern is on Interior Architecture, I could not help but share these uber-innovative business card designs. Recently featured on Smashing Magazine.com, these creatives have found an innovative way to mix work and play.

This first design is by Bryce Bell who has devised a way to take the typical 2 x 3 business card layout and transform it into a business card catapult – also known as the “Cardapult”.  You can watch and learn how to make your very own version of the Cardapult here.

This second design is from the Columbus Society of Communicating Arts at cscarts.org.  Here the business cards directly translate into a traditional set of playing cards.

This third design is from Webstock at webstock.org.nz. Webstock hosts web-related events and conferences to promote the improvement of websites and social media through inspiration and education.  These creative business cards turn the bore of trading contact information with other professionals into an exciting game.  Each employee is worth a certain amount of points, the more you engage with others, the higher your score will be.

Captain Feline employs anthropomorphism to blend pop culture with cats. The results are a collection of fun t-shirts and limited edition art prints – purr-fect for displaying a combined love of cats and cult movie characters! Whilst the debut t-shirt illustrations by Dave are inspired by cult and classic movie characters, the team plan to increase the range to feature other pop culture icons as they grow and expand.
