Musical Business Card Comb |
Never thought you'd hear the words: musical, business card and comb in the same sentence? Well you have now. This is a business card for a groovy hair salon in Rome called MODhair. It makes music when a finger nail is dragged over the comb teeth. The same principle as a music box. And it's a comb too. It was designed by Fabio Milito. Fab! |

Music by humanWorldwide. Marv. Embedded below from Vimeo - may not be here for long though. |
