Following up on his first line of playing cards, Oksal Yesilok created another edition for Whimsical Playing Arts. The cards once again feature delicate linework illustrations and geometric patterns, but this time come with a box that glows in the dark.

This deck of 54 cards are the reinterpretation of the known playing card symbols with a different design. Inspired by the logo of whimsical, the concept of the design is determined and supported by illustration.

“Spades are listed on top of all playing cards in bridge and typically symbolize death. Hearts are the second in ranking within all playing cards and typically symbolize love or romance. Diamonds are the third in ranking in bridge and typically symbolize health and wealth. Clubs are known as flowers or clovers in some parts of Africa. They are the last in ranking within all playing cards in bridge and typically symbolize war.”

“It printed with fluorescent colour to reinforce the line of design. The simple one-color design is only simple with respect to the narrow lines and one color. The images for each card are elaborate, intriguing, and add joy to your game of cards. The backs of each card is decorated with a diamond texture.”
