Envelope and Business Card (Perricone)
Hi all,
Here is my brand applied to business card and an envelope, i'm currently re-working my style guide and revising my brochure cover. I'm making a physical version and will post it when done, thanks for looking, any and all feedback welcome!
David – I’m not sure the mockup here serves your design well… as it appears that your logo is placed on the right side top of the letterhead, but “Letter Brand” sits at top left. Strange, so I don’t really know what you intend. What I DO like is the red inside flap of the envelope – very bold. However, you might be overdoing it a bit with the huge logo printed on the backside of the envelope. Why do you need this? Again – this might simply not be a good mockup template for us to view your work.
Business cards look great – and there is no reason why you can’t use both! They are close enough that we won’t confuse the 2 as belonging to different companies… and their contrast could speak to the individual attention your company pays to each and every project. OR – yes, you can choose just one. Either one would work really well in that case.
I really think that the white business card is the way to go. The black background takes away from the logo and type treatment. Just a thought but would you consider having the outlined portion of the logo embossed so it stands out without using the black outline? Just a thought. I really like the way it is coming along!
I really enjoy the colors you chose. I cant decide which version I like best. It seems you have two different color palette, a crimson and a magenta. Which color scheme do you intend to go with? I'm excited to see the rest of your project and the finished results. I think these are all going to come out great!
