New Zealand Playing Cards
The Mock Brief: Design the King, Queen, Jack and Joker. Design a single colour illustration suitable for the back of the Playing Cards.
I wanted to design both the front and back of my playing cards in the traditional way where the design is mirrored and there is no right or wrong way up.
I was initial drawn to the Maori style designs to create the mono pattern on back of the cars. Then during my research I decided to focus on the birds of New Zealand for the main design of the cards.
