Etikettarkiv: Spot Coating

Creative demand has made spot coating as one of the most popular finishing options among people who want to stand out with their business cards. Spot coating is applied to chosen area on a matte finished background of card. It is instantly eye-catching adding interest to your business details on card.

This is usually used to accentuate important information like company or person’s name, specific logo or image. For that added advantage spot coating is combined with another effect technique called soft touch coating which lends amazing physical feeling to your card. This combo of spot and soft touch coating is famously known as Silk Spot UV.

Shaemus Shepard

These business cards are for Providence-based accountant Shaemus Shepard. Given the conservative field, I wanted to deliver something simple, classy and professional. However, they still needed to be memorable and stand out from the crowd.

I selected the type face Optima for this project. It’s classy and modern yet still traditional enough for a 28 year old accountant.

The finished cards are printed on 16pt stock with spot UV coating on the front.

I wanted something that matched my website and reflected my personality well. I also wanted to make a statement, have people pause and recognize the card amongst a sea of other cards that are afraid to use bold colour. The spot varnish usually makes people pause and try to wiggle it against the light or feel the texture.
