Messymod, short for Messy Modernism, is a minimal approach to graphic-design conceived by Los Angeles based creative team, TRÜF. Born from their love of geometry, pattern, white space, Bauhaus, Miró and perhaps a little too much caffeine. After being introduced to their work earlier this year we knew right away we had to collaborate on a deck. Seven months later and we couldn't be more happy with the outcome.
The playing cards feature a completely custom design in typical Messymod fashion which can be described as minimal, modern, graphic, quirky, stylised, grotesque, delightful and just plain weird. Packaged in a premium letterpress-printed tuck box both inside and out. Printed by the US Playing Card Company on thin stock preferred by cardists.
