People do business with other people, but many business cards spend more space on the company and brand than the person handing them out.

Well, we might not love the logo but the Olympic venue tickets are pretty wonderful! Have a look in my gallery. "LOCOG has unveiled the ticket design s for the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

Colour is a critical element in design and can trigger different emotions. Red: Danger, excitement, passion Purple: Wealth, royalty, sophistication, intelligence Blue: Quiet, serenity, truth, dignity, reliability, power Black: Sophistication, elegance, power, rebellion White: Purity, cleanliness Yellow: Warmth, brightness, joy Green: Nature, fresh, health (Thx 4cents, Issue #22, for the info)
