Business Card Design - Finish

This is the new look for the business card for my groups' brand. I initially designed the business card but I passed it over to a group member to update the design. 

The geometric pattern seen below was my original idea for bg design on the business card but I didn't have time to whip it up so my group member took on the task and created the design.

The 2 below are the first or prototypes and production sketch of the business card design.

Extra pics from Singapore

I just happen to have found these pics on my phone from Singapore, taken on the MRT.
I assumed West Gate was the name of the MRT system when I first arrived in Singapore but is actually a place.

The logo really caught me because of the colours really >< but these are some of the creative branding advertisments on the MRT, supposed;y at the time promoting an event at West Gate.

~ Singapore was an awesome place

BG Design

My initial design geometric design idea for undlerlaying pattern(s) for business card and perhaps other stationary/ packaging design. 

Note: the pattern is found within islamic geometric design and could be seen in or around Singapore. My hotel room had a changing screen with the pattern engraved into it.

Geometric print on Tea

I spotted this at T2 in Civic. Just thought it could be a form of reference.

I loved how it was printed on the glass. I personally loved the white one.

Project and notes

Righteo... This post should have bee the first post but I wanted to make it the last as it would not only cover the basics of the blog but actually give more precise info on my position on this Singapore trip and my part in my group and assignment. Plus it'll be top post.

So for starters, you would have noticed that i mention a lot about a project or group but no reference to what I mean. This project is an assignment I am doing with 3 other classmates and the project is about creating our own brand and product and actually even selling it but what we come up with is entirely on influences we have picked up on this trip in Singapore.

What we have gone for is to create geometric shaped jewellery and accessories whilst incorporating geometric elements and other Singapore inspirations into our product.

Secondly, my position. It wasn't set in stone until our second week on the trip. We all have our own parts but we all still create a product. I'm creating earrings as my product but I'm responsible for most of the design aspect of this project and they include the business card and packaging and some surface graphics.
The logo was a group design.

Thirdly, I should be registered with welfare and inclusion so I have placed the extension it offeres towards the submission of this blog due to some events that had occured during my time in Singapore.

Production sketches

These were early sketches of ideas for a product around the first few days in Singapore.

Logo production sketches.

Jewellery/product productions on my end. My drawing influences for the design are based on Singapores' national symbolic plant or flower, which is an orchid.

Some packaging design concepts for most products.

And production sketches for the business card.

Day 10 - Presentation Day

Today is our last formal class in Singapore.

It's a good thing we had no activities during the morning as many of us were up quite late doing work for our project presentation.

This is our brand.

We would still need to meet up in the morning for presentation finalizing as we were going to be presenting in front designers we had met over our 2 weeks in Singapore.

This is what i managed to mock up but i was lost for word on my part when it came to presenting. But in the end, we had really good feed back from the designers judging us and i think we had something very unique, including our logo, out of the other groups.

Just some production sketches done on Thursday night.

These are some digital mock ups.
