This is a small book which has pictures in small, kind of, envelopes.





The reader can easily take the card with picture and hold it in the hands while observing.

Another idea, to make a calendar as a portfolio, so people will keep it for at least one year :)

4) Could be also some other ideas of transformable portfolio.

On the picture there are hands holding a tissue, I could use this kind of technique with hands holding each of my design peaces, just developing this idea as here it is a bit primitive.

Lovely ideas Anna! But knowing you and your personal interest in design I think the best one is the envelope one. You can add a little note in the bottom of each envelope like:
ReplyDelete"Re-use PLEASE". Find a way of printing each of them with a lovely design so people actually want to keep them and at the same time remember you. You can print each of them in a cheap way by designing a stamp and stamping each of them or maybe with typo transfers (art shops have a whole range of typo styles and colours). It's hard work to do it with typo transfer but it worth it. If you really like the final product and want to leave one to clients and possible companies you want to work with then you can send to print in serigraphy (more money but they charge you less the more envelopes you ask them to print!
Now, think about your log and palette or colours and how could you include all this in this particular idea.
If you can, make some sketches with different ideas for tomorrow so we can have a look together.
See you then,
Mariana.
