Trivia Cards
Succeeding the book, a mini trivia card game was created for the purpose of educating audiences about certain facts regarding playing cards. The goal is to win the most points possible for all questions answered.
Tapping into the topic of playing cards, this 100-page book breaks down the historical background of the 52-card deck and practices arising from it (card magic and cartomancy). Broken up into four sections - Photo Essay, Collection, Origin & Evolution, and Interview - the book is geometrically laid out in its design to portray the nature of a playing card, with each section's beginning and end page, as well as spreads, mirroring one another and maintaining geometrical symmetry. The following is a select number of page spreads that talk about the design history of playing cards including geography, suit origins, and definitions of cartomancy & card magic.
