Mixed Threads
A simple and beautiful unified logo. I love the colour palette used here, it really helps to separate this design. The typeface is great, although it could get hard to read when smaller.

An immediately striking site for a designer. The use of social networking (and other) icons is excellent and allows you to connect with the designer in many different ways. I love that you can filter the gallery, it's a great touch!

MB Design
An immediately intriguing site for a graphic and web designer from Columbia. The colour palette works extremely effectively, I love the blend of neutrals and colours. I particularly like the gallery here, it allows you to focus on one project at a time as you scroll across the page.

Rock Bluff
A good example of a stamp-style logo, in this instance for a brewing company. The use of a ribbon for the company name is really effective and helps it to stand out above the rest of the logo. I like the circular nature of the logo and the stag, but the white border gets a little clumsy around the antlers.

Fool\'s Errand Design
An awesome portfolio site for a freelance designer. The unique approach to layout here is fascinating and works well to get visitors engaged. The entertaining, and slightly tongue in cheek, tagline makes an immediate impact.

A simple concept, well executed. It can be difficult to make a single letter logo work at all, but here the use of a delightfully grungy texture and some loose idea of perspective help to make this one stand out. I particularly like the colours that comprise the weathered textured.

Basta
This person said they wanted round business cards, but realized that doing so meant that the cards wouldn’t fit into a typical cardholder. The solution? A perforation that allows you to rip the card so it will fit. I love the concept and find that the choice of colours here just simply 'works'.

Smokeproof Press
I really love this idea, it’s word of mouth marketing at its finest. The basic concept is that every business card you give out has a little portion that can be torn off and shared with someone else. It’s a great way to encourage your customers to recommend you!

Caliper Card
This one is a fully-functional sliding caliper! If someone gave me this I would definitely keep it in my desk for quick-measuring and would constantly be reminded of their business. A stunning, albeit expensive, business card solution!

Appetites
Appetites is a simply gorgeous iPad App that teaches you how to cook using luscious videos content and detailed instructions! I love the homely feel of the App and choice of wood for the background. One particular highlight is definitely the use of video photographs of the various food bloggers, it creates an amazingly immersive experience!

Tam Cargo
A wonderfully rough looking idea for a business card! I love the concept that for a cargo company the business card could fold into a cargo box, ready to ship a teaspoon of coffee around the world! The simple use of logos gives the card a powerful sense of authenticity!

disguise the unworthy
An incredibly ingenious use of chemical etching to create a stunning business card design. It might be expensive to manufacture but it\'ll make an instant impression on any prospective clients! I love the idea that you\'ll put it in your wallet with your driving license and give yourself a disguise!

Nigella Quick Collection
Nigella Quick Collection is an awesome cooking App for the iPhone and features a highly intuitive and beautifully designed interface. I love the consistent colour palette and excellent use of tabs! The photography is excellent throughout and really makes the interface!

Bracket
This crazy designer left the outside of the card completely blank! It’s only when you squeeze the card and have a look inside that you discover the hidden information. This kind of unique design immediately grabs the attention of any prospective clients!

Goldenboy Media
Goldenboy Media\'s site is a great example of consistently gorgeous design! The layout is clear and full of nice details, such as the little handwritten notes around the site. I love the icons and use of typeface throughout, you can immediately tell they\'ve got a talent for logo design!

Print Handbook
A brilliant site design that features some really nice detail. The coloured \'buy it\' buttons are great, as is the execution of the three column approach! I love the fresh approach to layout shown here, the site guides you left to right across the columns rather than straight down the page.
