Playing cards have a rich history beginning around 600AD in China which then developed into the Latin-suited cards we use today. Playing cards have evolved into a culture of their own; festivals such as Cardtopia and Card-Con allow hundreds of fanatics to come together, teach each other their tricks, trade cards and meet others within their niche community.
North West Card Fest is a festival based in Liverpool, aiming to celebrate playing cards through a variety of events such as tournaments and an exhibition of cards from around the world.
I intended to create an identity which celebrates the beauty of traditional playing cards, whilst also bringing an energetic and modern feel through vibrant colours associated with playing cards.
