The Second Annual "Playing Card Collection Day"

These decks represent how we see the art of card collection - beautifully unique, consistently dynamic, and authentically yours. The decks are designed to compel and test the boundaries of the playing card world to keep our art consistently growing. They're kept at small runs not because of artificial limits, but because they're handcrafted, side stepping the industrial world of automation in favor of a more authentic handmade piece of art for your collection.

The Latin Quarter is our fanciful interpretation of cards and chips for an illegal casino that existed in Lexington Kentucky 100 years ago. We treated the project like we were hired to create the branding for the casino and brought our own spin to it. The research was broad and deep on this one.

The "Latin Quarter" moniker harkens back to Paris in the Middle Ages. The Latin Quarter was the area around the great University of Paris where all the scholars and great thinkers of the time resided and Latin was the commonly spoken tongue in the area. Our design pays homage to that history. The typeface used for the Latin Quarter logo is a blackletter font based on the dense calligraphic scripts that monks in the Latin Quarter would have used to write manuscripts. The Fleur De Lis is the historic symbol of the French monarchy and it makes appearances throughout the deck.
