For the last year we’ve been working on a series of playing cards celebrating the works of Frank Lloyd Wright, one of the most influential designers of the twentieth century. To start, we go back 100 years to one of his most grandiose projects. More details to come. ... Imperial Hotel. Tokyo, Japan. Official playing cards coming soon.

Really curious how these are going to look. With Eames, and now this, I wonder which architect they'll try next.

I vote Zaha Hadid! Or Moshe Safdie!

And you can briefly see how it looked like by checking out Fulton’s IG (showcasing the deck and being a showman as usual)

I like the tuck but the cards are hideous.

Not even close to being worth $25 imo.

100%. I love Frank Lloyd Wrights work but this is atrocious.

Way too close to each other courts.

It's hecking 25$! Jeez, is it me or AoP decks are getting costly these days? Is the steep price including paying loyatly fee to FLW Foundation?

Also... a bit of down side knowing Fulton involved in the creation of the deck. I cringe on him showing off his glasses while doing lenghty presentation of the deck XD

Promising tuck, but the courts are a letdown.
