Amsterdam designer Frank Tjepkema's "Invader Aiko" ring

People can’t seem to get over seminal arcade game Space Invaders invading all forms of their design. Its simple, pixelated genius has so sunk so deep in our cultural consciousness that you can find that 2-bit celestial aggressor on everything from Silver Pendents to Multi-Tool Keychains to Limited Edition Watches to of course street artist [...]
