Ideas for Designing Business Card
Share
Business cards are hard printed medium for spreading word about your business and what you do. These papers should truly stand the test of time and patience between those you offer services towards. Thus, their concepts should be fascinating and creative, stretching far from common people’s imagination.

Consider some of the points I’ve raised below regarding modern card templates and how you can break out of the box.

Magical Mirror Anamorphoses
Magical Mirror Anamorphoses
“With mirror anamorphosis, a conical or cylindrical mirror is placed on the drawing or painting to transform a flat distorted image into a three dimensional picture that can be viewed from many angles. The deformed image is painted on a plane surface surrounding the mirror. By looking uniquely into the mirror, the image appears undeformed,” notes from Wikipedia. In this news post, you can see the incredible anamorphic etchings of Istvan Orosz.

Is this really a sculpture?
So, you are wondering what is so special about this man’s face? It is a hyperrealist sculpture by Jamie Salmon, who uses materials such as silicone rubber, fibre glass, acrylic and human hair. Incredible detail!
Also see: The Hyperrealist Sculptures of Ron Mueck
Notes from the artist (from bio):
I like to use the human form as a way of exploring the nature of what we consider to be “real” and how we react when our visual perceptions of this reality are challenged. In our modern society we have become obsessed with our outward appearance, and now with modern technology we are able to alter this in almost anyway we desire. How does this outward change affect us and how we are perceived by others?

In a Paper World, there are Paper Characters (Realistic Paper Figures)
Alexei Lyapunov and Lena Ehrlich (both of them from Russia) created some amazing paper sculptures. These figures tell us some stories and present us people in everyday situations or celebrities like Elvis Presley, Bob Marley, The Beatles, Michael Jackson, and so on. They certainly look more entertaining with these colors and this great style. Enjoy!
