TapIn CARD DESIGN
The objective was to design graphics for printing on CR-80-sized near-field communication (NFC) cards that matched the customer's branding. Initially, the work focused on customizing to the customer's brand, but later, it shifted to a standard approach centered on the TapIn brand. The card design library includes the TapIn standard card, ID card, partnership-branded cards, and event cards.
MOODBOARD & INSPIRATION
The brand was anchored in several key concepts, including blockchain, helping people make connections, and technology.
INITIAL SKETCHES
DIGITAL IDEATION
All concepts included a gradient showing depth and movement. The final ideation rounds leaned toward constellation-like imagery representative of network connections.
