RAVE: Location Unknown Playing Cards

The RAVE: Location Unknown Playing Cards is more than just a deck of cards- it's an invitation to a cosmic rave like no other. Conceptualised by Bruce Di Quinzio and designed by Edo Huang, the deck is inspired by a lifelong fascination with space and the possibility of extraterrestrial life. RAVE imagines a universe where aliens don't come to invade but to share in the most extraordinary rave our planet has ever seen. 

Inside, the deck's back design captures the essence of rave culture, with a powerful sound wave that cracks across a vinyl record, symbolizing the intensity and energy of the event. This scene is complemented by Zark's head and a flying saucer in opposite corners, both beaming with electrifying white light.

The suits and number cards maintain a standard design with a vibrant twist. Hearts and diamonds have been transformed into rich dark pink, while clubs and spades feature a sleek dark purple. This intentional simplicity ensures clarity, especially for magicians performing tricks and sleights. 

The court cards bring a fresh vibe with a modern twist, replacing the traditional black with dark purple and infusing dark pink and gold accents. This blend of innovation and tradition ensures that the cards stand out while remaining familiar to players, collectors, and magicians.

At the heart of the deck is the custom Ace of Spades, featuring Zark in full rave mode. Spinning his records with one hand raised, Zark is dressed in a wild green suit with matching headphones, and an 'R' on his chest to match his alien green skin. 

 

The tuck case showcases Zark against a futuristic club setting, bathed in dark pink to purple hues, with a sound wave bursting in a dazzling display behind him.

The Jokers are equally captivating, featuring a vinyl record in shiny lime green with Zark’s face at the center. The record player is adorned in bold pink, with "Joker" popping in deep violet hues.
