These synthetic brains can function faster, more accurately and with greater scope than we ever could. But they are still the composition of plastic, metal and gels; which when constructed correctly make the modern miracle of computers.

I wanted to explore this fascination through the Circuit cards, highlighting the intricate and perfectly composed circuits that make it all possible. Channelling millions of independent electrical currents to hundreds of destinations, each circuit is the picture of unfathomable complexity. This is represented by the detailed background circuits anchoring the design to the circuit board, and the bold circuits making up the suit symbols.

I also wanted to embody the way in which this technology has become integrated into our lives, and so the court cards are composed of directional circuits. These circuit figures are the representative of this digital age, a time when it is becoming more and more difficult to see where we end and technology starts.

There are 4 decks in the Circuit Series: Rainbow White, Ice Blue, Neon Green and PCB:

Each deck boasts:

Intricate foil and embossing to box exterior

Beautiful illustrations with subtle background design.

Unique themed suits in the Circuit style.

Printed by WJPC on 310gsm German Black core card stock

The Ice Blue circuit deck features subtle aqua circuits on a cool color pallet. Similar to the white deck, the card faces are optimised for functionality and ease of play, while the striking back and box draw the eye on every angle.

About The Cards

MADE IN AMERICA The cards themselves are made in the USA - printed on FSC-certified paper derived from sustainable forests, vegetable-based inks, and starch-based laminates.

The Dark Side Box

EMBOSSED AND FOIL STAMPED On the front of the dark side box, look through the window of the Imperial Throne Room, with symbols of the Galactic Empire and First Order on each corner.

Both decks feature the same set of 12 court cards, representing each side. On the dark side, Palpatine is depicted alongside Kylo Ren, Darth Vader, and more.

On the King of Spades, Darth Vader is depicted holding his lightsaber while taking command of his Imperial subordinates. “I find your lack of faith disturbing.”

Across the red back design, it's all about the details - from the Death Star to the First Order, Sith, and Empire insignia. In the center, a repeating pattern of TIE fighters supports Darth Vader's lightsaber on either side.
