Describing himself as a 'colour designer,' Robin Gillet (opens in new tab) was keen to showcase his love of all things bright and beautiful in his business cards. "Using spray paint for the project was evident from the beginning, as I didn't want to use any software – I wanted to create something that was handmade," he explains.

"So we cut the paper, put it on a table and sprayed all of the card with loads of colours. Then, I used Indesign – a software, I know – and printed my contact and logo in black to get contrast the bright colours." A simple idea, beautifully executed, Gillet's business cards are bound to get him noticed.
