Typography Meets the Diamond
The Ask

The Solution
Developed a 52-card playing deck that fuses the Futura typeface with the NL East baseball teams.
Strategic Idea
Fusing Futura with the dominance of NL East baseball, this deck reimagines the typeface as a bold tribute to America’s pastime.
Key Objective

Conclusion
Overall, I had so much fun creating this deck of playing cards! I recently started to follow baseball way more than I have previously, and I am a big fan of it. It was cool to showcase one of my passions in the form of this typographic project.
I also enjoy designing with typography, so this project really pushed me to create some intriguing designs. It was a pretty difficult project as I had to design 54 different cards, but it taught me some valuable skills in time management with my workflow.
