Back in Oslo I ordered some new business cards which I thought could get in handy when attending design events and meeting new people. Of course, designing business cards for your self is much harder than doing it for a client and I don’t have that much information to give out. My name, a short description and some contact information.
Instead of making it a very advanced card, with super cool graphics and lens flares I decided to make it minimalistic (is it actually a word?) and clean with focus on elegant typography. The typefaces used are Gotham and Mrs Eaves.

Very nice Ole! The colours are great. I went for something similar in my recent business cards.

@Chris – Oh, I like those :) No need to say that you’re in web development.
Looking good, Mr. Piraja! I’m liking the clean, neat look. And loving the amperand in Mrs. Eaves :)
@ole Well actually I fancy myself as more of a designer, I like the front end stuff but not really a techy guy. I just liked the idea of the html
@Chris – It works either way :)
@Jesper – The ampersand is actually in Garamond!
Ahh, I see it now. The italic ampersand looks good no matter which typeface it’s from, though the one from Garamond looks a lot better than the italic one from Mrs. Eaves!
