ART OF PLAY - PLAYING CARDS - JUST TYPE - EDITION 2
Just Type is a modern reinterpretation of classic playing card design and a tribute to the different ways in which the spirit of type can be modified. Paula Scher, a titan of the graphic design world has playfully deconstructed the classic french design of traditional playing cards and removed all extraneous elements.
Edition 2: Offers a minimalist approach in the spirit of classic mid-century design. Each card features an amalgamation of suit and value that expresses its identity with a single figure. An extraordinarily clever visual system makes use of negative space to incorporate the traditional pips (clubs, hears, spades, and diamonds) into custom drawn letterforms. The result is both beautiful and humorous.
