70 Unique Business Cards by Tim Yu

As we continue to fiddle with our own business cards, it was nice to come across a comprehensive list of 70 original and clever designs.
The site features a range of different shapes, sizes and forms, but my favorites are ones that have some sort of interactive or playful feature, like the pull-tab (above left) and scratch-off (below left). Obviously, the most important objective is to get the message across and in that respect some are definitely better than others. Nonetheless, it's always a fun excercise to see how designers utilize a limited amount of space so have a look for yourself at Fubiz.

Wozzup Mutazionidinterni Design
By Paolo Ferrarini of Future Concept Lab In Milan it's unusual to find "non-Milanese” design, meaning design that's not linear, clean or somehow a reinterpretation of classic pieces and brands. Decidedly untraditional, Wozzup Mutazionidinterni is the refreshing exception to this rule. Former set designer Luca Porcelli and Maurizio Duranti, an ex-graphic designer, founded Wozzup in 2007. They work and exhibit their furniture, paintings and objects...
