Posted in Business Cards | Comments Off on Business Card Printing: Paper Color and Texture Choices

I’ve been revising a client’s logo and corporate identity package over the last several weeks.

Custom Printing: Some Functional Elements of Packaging

July 5th, 2020

Posted in Packaging | Comments Off on Custom Printing: Some Functional Elements of Packaging

Readability. Utility. Precision. Some commercial printing work is not meant to persuade or educate, but rather to convey information clearly. It’s called functional printing. The printed keys on your keyboard fit into this category. So does the package of eyedrops my fiancee just received from her eye surgeon. She will undergo cataract surgery in a few weeks, and the pre-operative information she just received has to be unquestionably clear. Read the rest of this entry »

What you see above is silver ink on glass. I’ve increased the contrast a bit to make the texture and radiance a bit more obvious, but overall the concept is pregnant with possibility. When you add digital custom printing to the mix, gold as well as silver ink, and layering of glass to protect the ink from scuffing (and apparently tarnishing as well), you have the recipe for luxurious success.

Plethora of Custom Printing Companies For Your Business

However, instead of you spending too much time, it is best if a single company acts as the intermediary between you and the print company.
