CARDS DESIGN
TYPOGRAPHY

PROJECT BRIEF

Designing a set of twelve double-sided playing cards inspired by a hero or villain of our choice.

MY VISION

The cards embrace Calvino's concepts of playfulness, experimentation, and chance while attempting to graphically recount significant events from his life, literary contributions, and cultural impact. Every card serves as a unique storytelling medium and includes symbolic components that reference to Calvino's literary concepts and cultural inspirations. The project's objective is to present a nuanced and multifaceted portrait of Calvino, inspiring people to interact with his legacy through a creative text-and-image fusion.Lo Scrittore presents a novel interpretation of one of Italy's most renowned authors by fusing careful analysis with imaginative visual storytelling
