Eames “Starburst” Playing Cards are a thoughtful tribute to the timeless design sensibilities of Charles and Ray Eames, created by Art of Play in close collaboration with the Eames Office.

This first edition features the iconic Eames Office Starburst logo on the card backs, a recurring symbol in the Eameses’ work that represents creative energy, curiosity, and a constant reach toward design’s deeper purpose. The imagery captures the sense of motion and optimism that defined their approach across disciplines.

The faces of the cards introduce a unique numbering system that allows cardistry movements to echo the visual logic of the Eameses’ film Powers of Ten. The court cards draw from elemental geometric forms, reflecting the Eames belief in mathematics, structure, and the productive role of constraints in shaping meaningful design.

Packaged in a letterpress-printed tuck case produced on sustainable paper with vegetable-based dyes, the box design references the house Charles and Ray built as their creative home. Made in the USA, this deck functions equally well as a playing card set, a design object, or a collectible piece of Eames history.
