Contest $25 Professional Business Card Contest - Directions Provided

Hello everyone,

Looking for a sleek, cool, and professional looking business card design.
The theme here is DARK. The business card need to have 2 sides.
Also important: Please do NOT save the file with the company name in it. I do NOT want this to show up in the search engines with the company name.

The company name and logo is provided and ATTACHED here.
What I would like:

FRONT
- Name (use for just the example: Bill Gates)
- Title (use: Co-Founder)
- Phone Number (use format 555.555.5555)
- Email Address ()
- Website (www.website.com)

BACK
- Please put the LOGO just on the back side (NOT the front)
- Please put the SLOGAN line also on the back - it is ATTACHED in file here as well

Other info:
Once again, the whole motif and theme here should be DARK DARK overall. But of course mix colors to make sure there is enough contrast to read things. The colors that are included in our company color template are:

• Yellow/orange: #FDB905
• Gray: #DEDEDE
• Black: #000000
• White: #FFFFFF
• You can also use variations of these colors, especially variations of black & gray if you need to. Or also I am open to textures and designs like CARBON FIBER backgrounds.

The font used in the logo if you also want to use it is http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/play

We are also using this font in the company http://www.dafont.com/it/weblysleek-ui.font

But you can decide what font looks best or if you want to use a different font.

I will pay with PayPal.

ALSO NOTE: PLEASE FEEL FREE TO BE CREATIVE AND DO OTHER THINGS + TRY WHATEVER YOU THINK LOOKS GOOD. THE ABOVE IS WHAT I HAVE IMAGINED, BUT I AM OPEN TO DIFFERENCES (LIKE FOR EXAMPLE PUTTING THE LOGO IN OTHER PLACES OR CHANGING UP SOME ELEMENTS).

The THEME of the company, if it helps you with ideas, is parking (as in, driving your car and parking in a parking garage building / carpark / lot).

I will continue the contest until I see a winning design that I like. I will be providing feedback often.

THANK YOU!

 

I will join soon.

 

feedback appreciated:

 

Thank you for the submissions so far. The contest is still OPEN since I am looking for more submissions and nothing here 'hits the spot' on a clear winner. Some comments:

@Monkz = thank you for participating in the contest. I must say that I like the overall vibe and feel of your design. I never imagined a silver/grey back side, but I certainly do like it and it has a cool contrast for the logo. It's nice a subtle overall, the design, but I feel like it is missing something extra on that back side. For one, please remove the URL on the back as I would not need it there. Also the motto on the back is just a little too 'poor' or 'plain' in a way - it doesn't have much strength to it with the flushed/matching color font and also the simple lowercase font/writing. The front is pretty good overall, but maybe also some more addition of yellow or also incorporate the silver from the back-side into the front as well. Maybe something to give the front some more depth or framing/spacing.

@akosvan = thanks as well for your submissions, I appreciate your time but honestly your style does not fit the type of design that I am looking for - it just doesn't have that classy and professional feel that I'd like. They are too 'fun' and animated, too much going on.

@frikusha = Hi! Glad to see you here participating, thanks. I do like your card as well, there is clearly a lot of thought that went into it. But honestly it's a bit "too much" for the type of more subtle and quiet/professional design that I am hoping for. It's almost a bit too "heavy" in a way, if that makes sense. Because of all the elements it almost seems like it would be good for the construction industry for instance, something more solid and strong. I think the font on the name is too large and too present for me. The colors are cool and the background texture is great But then also the yellow line on the back is a bit too much with those extra diagonal lines/pieces (the 3 blocks). And I would like it better without that extended diagonal shadow on the logo on the back. But maybe there are other variations to some creativity you can try for all the elements, just something a bit more "light" and minimalist. Thanks!

 

Thanks for the feedback. I have left the front page as it was since I think it is good and changing things can make it messy.

 

for $25 classy and professional...... too 'fun', but my last try
