These ultra-modern playing cards have unique design that makes sure you play your next game of poker in style.
Designed by Solid Studios, each card has been remixed to reflect a contemporary feel. Every suit is playfully remastered but is recognizable enough not to get confused. The ordinary heart icon was remixed as a simple, sleek sketch-like illustration. The diamond has also been replaced by a hashtag, quite a relevant image for today's generation.
Each of the cards is also inspired by music, and the center resembles a musical note or time signature. Each of the fonts, which differ for each suit, elegantly incorporates a modern graphic with the classic look of musical notions. The unique deck of cards also comes in a stylish box for safekeeping.
