As a species who likes to transform and modify everything according to our wishes, we are very much into decoration. As soon as we move into a new place with like to leave behind the marks of our existence on that place by painting it with bright colors, putting up pictures or by adding other details very specific to us. We also like tiny items of decoration. Anything small instantly makes us go “aww” and we start finding it adorable. Talking about marking things and decorating them brings me to the concept of a custom badge that you might have often seen secured to bags and even clothes of college and school students. Such badges can be obtained from an offline as well as an online store.
People like to wear metal badges on occasions like festivals as a way of celebration. Apart from being quirky and fun, badges also help in identification at places where large number of people work under the same roof. If you are looking for help, and need to find someone who may assist you, then badges will help in identifying the concerned person. In public places like hotels, restaurants and airports, badges help customers in finding out who belongs to which department. It helps people to identify and seek help in a situation where they don’t know how to get started. While going for shopping in a super market, you might have seen the helpers wearing a badge which have had helped you in calling out to them instead of mistaking a fellow shopper as assisting staff and facing embarrassment.

Social Message
Whenever there is a need to amplify a social message or cause, we take help of art combined with other methods like verbal speeches. Art like posters, graffiti, body painting and printed badges are some of the visual forms of capturing the attention of viewers.
