Business Cards Artwork |
Business card design is an art, but you don't have to dig into the
details of graphic design just to make a simple card. Over on UPrinting,
they've put together a few ways to use psychology to you advantage when
designing you business cards.
While your best bet is to sit back and learn the basics of design,
UPrinting's advice is straight-forward enough that anyone can take
something away from it. For instance, they're big fans of whitespace on
business cards for a simple reason:
Another element to consider is more whitespace is generally associated with sophistication while less whitespace is often associated with cheap design. This helps explain why so many business cards take the simplistic approach and include the basic text, a lot of whitespace, and maybe a few engaging graphical or design elements.
Whitespace
is easy, but they even dig into your typeface choice. If you're
struggling to choose which font works best for you, they suggest you go
with your gut:
They all have a completely different vibe, right? One trick for picking a font is to type out certain characteristics you think the font might possess in that specific font. Is it fun, energetic, tense, etc.?
Seeing the words in the font they potentially correspond with will help you determine if it's a good match. Also, consider if you can identify the opposite mood of the font. If you can't, that probably means it's not very clear and you can pick a better option.
The basics here are pretty simple,
if you want to make your business card stand out, then keep an eye on
psychological cues. While it's not an exact science, the idea that a
thoughtful design makes your business cards more interesting certainly isn't new. According to Uprinting, it's not as hard as it seems. Once you're done with the design, you have a ton of options to get them printed for cheap.
