This ski jump–themed business card holder is a compact desk accessory designed to keep business cards neatly displayed and easy to access. Inspired by the profile of a ski jump ramp, the holder allows cards to rest at the end of the slope, creating a clean and recognizable silhouette. It works well on desks, counters, or workspaces where cards need to be visible without taking up much space.

The goal of this design was to turn a simple card holder into a visually interesting object while keeping it practical and easy to print. By using the natural slope of a ski jump as the main structural element, the holder relies on gravity rather than clamps or moving parts. This keeps the design minimal, sturdy, and suitable for single-color 3D printing without excessive supports.

This design is also part of a personal challenge I’m doing for the year 2026: designing and releasing a brand new 3D printable model every single day for an entire year. Each design will explore a different idea—some practical, some playful, some reflective. If you enjoy following creative processes, testing new designs, or simply watching ideas turn into physical objects, feel free to follow along and join me on this 365-day journey.
