Iota Playing Cards | By Joe Doucet

How minimal can a design be and still function as a playable and attractive deck of cards?

Joe dallies with the idea of how much you can take away from the typical overdressed kings and queens and oversized hearts and spades while still maintaining a playable deck. The result is an elegant, contemporary and light-filled decor.
