Kickstarter: BRuT Playing Cards by Uusi

The team at Uusi is back with a modernist playing card deck. The BRuT Limited Edition Playing Card deck is a companion to the Tarot deck that is currently funding on Kickstarter. The project is already 148% funded with 25 days to go.

The artwork is inspired by Early 20th Century Modernism, Art Brut (or Outsider Art) and the forceful, geometric look of Brut Architecture. All imagery in this deck is hand-painted using gouache – a type of watercolor medium that is similar to watercolor but more highly pigmented.

The BRuT Playing Card deck features 52 playing cards and two jokers all with original, eye-catching artwork that makes them ideal for magic and card games, yet at the same time very familiar and recognizable by players and spectators alike. Pledge starts from $12, BRuT will be printed by EPCC on their famous Master Finish card stock with a linen finish. Only 5000 will be available.
