The current layout, re-set with care: the gradient swan printed in full colour, the VEDAS wordmark in Poppins, and the tagline centred beneath. No cutting. The safe choice that still feels new because of the metal.

Crest, neck and wing become an opening; only the water lines stay printed. Light and whatever is behind the card fill the swan, so it changes with every hand it is in. The hamsa is the bird of discernment in Indian thought: a fitting mark for human intelligence.

Turned upright, the swan has room to breathe. The head and the long neck are cut from the metal; the wing feather and water stay printed in the brand gradient. The details sit in a calm centred column on the back with the QR code at its foot.

The swan floats at the left and its water lines keep going: four sinuous slits are cut across the lower half of the card, each thinning out as it travels. The metal between them reads as the wake the swan leaves behind.

The swan is the human side. From the tip of its wing a network grows across the card: the nodes are laser-cut through the metal, the links between them are printed. Intelligence passing from one kind to the other.

Vedas sits where human and artificial intelligence meet. That meeting point, the X from the tagline, becomes the hero: two fine slits cut through the metal, with 'Human Intelligence' above and 'Artificial Intelligence' below. The swan and wordmark hold the left.

One feather from the swan's wing, laid across the corner of the card. The shaft is a fine printed line; every barb is a laser-cut slit, long in the middle and short at the tip. From across a table it reads as a feather; up close it is light passing through metal.

The hamsa is said to separate milk from water. Here a field of laser-cut dots starts open at the right edge and resolves, dot by dot, into solid silver where the swan sits. Noise on one side, clarity on the other: what a good consultant does.

A single letter cut 30 mm tall, in the same Poppins Bold as the wordmark. The swan is printed small inside the top of the V, as if the letter were the water it rests on. Bold from a distance, quiet in the hand.

Instead of printing the blue wave from the current card, the metal is cut to its shape: the top corner sweeps away in one smooth curve. Nothing is printed there; the swan at the left faces open water. A card nobody else on the table has.
