Kickstarter: Lost Deer Playing Cards by BOCOPO Playing Card Co.

BOCOPO Playing Card Co. is currently funding Lost Deer Playing Cards on Kickstarter. The deck is currently on its final week and have raised over $14.5k in 18 days. The mysterious deck has been designed by Eriksson, based on his dream. According to the Kickstarter project page,

In the dream, he lost his way in a misty woods filled with disappointment and was unable to escape. When he desperately wanted to give up, a roe deer appeared. The high antler was like a flag of pride and led him to step out of the terrible dream. When Eriksson woke up, he translated this dream into his creative inspiration, so Lost Deer Playing Cards were born.

The design elements of the deck is a combination of Chinese and Western Art and Aesthetics. The popular low-poly design in the Western world has been used. The image of a deer is outlined only by lines and finished with traditional ink painting from the west. Beautifully integrating the east and the west



Inside, the face cards have been designed from the ground up. The indices are more polished, the custom courts have been redesigned to suit the overall style and eye-catching geometric elements on the corner and center of the face cards makes the deck look good for card flourishes.

The card backs feature a vortex formed after the distortion of the antlers. The gradual color change makes the deck look mysterious. The deck is packaged in a minimalistic tuck box, with a wrap-around elk-shaped mosaic design of the deer prominently featured.

Lost Deer Forest Playing Cards is printed by the USPCC and pledge starts from $11 on Kickstarter.
