About Pattern Play تاش کے پتے، کیلنڈر

پیٹرن پلے تاش کے پتوں کا ایک سیٹ اور ایک کیلنڈر ہے جو روزمرہ زندگی میں رنگ بھرنے کے لیے ڈیزائن کیا گیا ہے۔ تاش کے ان پتوں پر روایتی نشانات (سوٹس) کی جگہ 54 منفرد تصویرکشیاں موجود ہیں۔ بادشاہ، بیگم اور غلام کے پتے کیلیڈوسکوپ سے متاثر ہیں، جبکہ عدد والے پتوں پر بے ترتیب نمونے اور اشکال دکھائی گئی ہیں۔ یہ پتے 310 جی ایس ایم واٹرپروف بلیک کور اسٹاک پر میٹ فنش اور گول کونوں کے ساتھ طبع کیے گئے ہیں۔ کیلنڈر میں انہی فن پاروں میں سے 12 کو 250 جی ایس ایم خصوصی کاغذ پر بڑے سائز میں پیش کیا گیا ہے، جس میں پھاڑنے والی لکیر موجود ہے تاکہ ہر ورق پوسٹر کے طور پر بھی استعمال ہو سکے۔ اس ڈیزائن کا مقصد عام دنوں میں مثبت رنگ بھرنا ہے۔

Unique Properties: Pattern Play! is Design For You’s newest series, a TOPYS project that aims to enliven daily objects with design power.

Production Technology: 'Pattern Play!'' Playing Cards was made with 310 gsm waterproof card stock paper, matte cover finish, and rounded corners, double-sided solid color printing. The calendar was made with 250 gsm specialty paper which was printed in solid color with a tear-off line.
Design Challenge: The main challenge in the creative process is to balance originality and practicality. The designer has to follow design rules for playing cards while trying to separate them from standard products. Instead of spades, hearts, diamonds, and clubs, 54 unique illustrations were created for each card. J, Q, and K are kaleidoscope-inspired. A to 10 are irregular patterns and shapes. Jokers are TOPYS's IP little ghost. The team also did several internal tests and spent a lot of time adjusting the size and colors of the letters and numbers to make sure they were easy to read and play with.
Research: As a first-timer, the team did a lot of research on different types, printing techniques, and materials of playing cards, wanting to make sure that it is a top-quality product with top designs. We studied many cases ranging from big companies like Art of Play, and Bicycle to small local labels. Then we compared many suppliers and paid factory visits. With in-depth research, the team decided to produce in poker size, which allows more visuals, and with international standard 310 gsm black core card, matte cover finishes to provide a premium playing experience, even for daily recreational activities.
Inspiration: People have taken unprecedented safety measures during COVID-19. Being socially isolated for so long makes everyone feel more or less lonely or depressed. And thus the designer wants to create designs with vivid, bold colors within organic patterns and shapes to inject positivity and hope into people's daily life. The team chose playing cards as the main product in hopes to provide a refreshing and special entertainment experience for family and friends, while a colorful eye-catching calendar can brighten up and energize any space as a nice decoration.
Project Duration: It was started in July 2022 in Shenzhen and went on sale in November 2022 in Shenzhen.
