Probably the coolest business card ever, this Space Invaders design stands out from generic products of its kind. Created by Italian Art director Paolo Castellaneta, these cards are a way to set yourself apart from others in a big way.
The cards are shaped like the famous video game characters, and are made from bright neon plastic. The cards come in a variety of colors, including red, orange, green and blue. The material used for the plastic was plexiglass and silk-screen.
Anyone who received one of these at a meeting would be sure to take notice of their business over anyone else's. Castellaneta's design, above all, stands out from the crowd and makes a reference to beloved games of years ago.
