Black Rock Collective Playing Cards Vol. 2

Black Rock Collective Playing Cards Vol. 2 is another beautiful deck, lovingly created by over 30 artists of the Black Rock Collective.

The feel, overall brilliantly printed card size and box design are the same as the first deck. As is the varied styles (and nationalities) of the BRC. What IS different about this deck (ingeniously named ‘Version 2’) is the limited palette of classic Black, White and Red. Almost every mix of these three colours artistically designed for your card playing pleasure.” ~ BRC

Black Rock Collective Playing Cards Vol. 1

This Black Rock Collective Playing Cards Vol. 1 deck was lovingly created by 36 artists of the Black Rock Collective.

A rather crass yet brilliant Australian member had the idea of doing a card deck – a perfect medium to utilise the BRC’s mish mash of styles and techniques. One of the New Zealand members ran with this idea (such is the way down there in the Antipodes) and ‘by crikey’, here it is.

The result of hours of doodling, squabbling, and sanding every card by hand has produced this diverse and beautiful card deck. It feels amazing, and deserves to be fondled as much as possible.” ~ BRC

Upcoming: Stranger & Stranger Playing Cards

Stranger & Stranger, you’ve outdone yourselves once again. Following their Holiday Spirits of the past few years, “to celebrate the year we broke out of our alcohol comfort zone and designed premium olive oils, fine foods, luxury luggage, and just plain crazy new stuff, we teamed up with the amazing Dan & Dave to create this, our Ultimate Deck.” And broke out of their alcohol they did! Previously, anyone who asked me for suggestions on alcohol packaging, i undoubtedly told them, Stranger & Stranger! Well it sounds like it has been quite the year for the incredible design group… and these cards (no surprise) are STUNNING, down to the tiniest of details! From the matte black magnetic box… to the velvety pouches… to the festive ambigram… to the seal on the deck… to the gilded edges of the deck… to the artwork adorning each card… it’s a magnificent deck of cards!” ~ Stranger & Stranger

Printed by USPCC. Poker size.
