The pattern of the Purple Limited deck evokes memories of the medieval royal court. Nodes intertwining with graceful swirls, enhanced by the combination of purple and silver foils, add a touch of regal elegance. However, upon close inspection, the pattern reveals a repeated symmetrical flowery coat of arms. When observed from a distance, one will notice that the lines are misaligned, creating a sense of oddity. The effect is a borderless back design with hints of an optical illusion, visible from near to far.

Back design

Court Cards

Following the tradition of my creations, I use simple lines to sketch the characters. With a subtle variation of thick and thin strokes, they come to life with more personality. The clothing is not shabby, and the use of blocky color patches and gradients gives the traditional courts a classy and contemporary appearance. Although the courts maintain a traditional frame, each character has an item, a weapon, or a sleeve that extends beyond the borders. After all, margins are made for trespassing, aren't they?
