Polaris Card Deck
Brief
The primary objective for this project was to develop a graphic concept for an original deck of cards comprising of 52 cards, four suits of thirteen ranks, a joker and packaging. The deck also needed to contain a coherent visual language and implement the design within the fixed framework of the cards.
Concept
The Polaris Playing Cards is based on a cosmic narrative centered around the celestial rulers of the galaxy: the Sun King, the Moon Queen, and their Star Child. The deck blends traditional card structure with this celestial theme, creating a unique playing experience.
Character Illustrations
As someone who loves to illustrate, this project was absolutely fun to work on.
To continue the world building of the characters, I decided to create two illustrations featuring the Sun King and Moon Queen. They were both drawn on procreate, and provide more insight into the personalities of the characters. I hope to expand their story into a full project in the future.
