Eames "Hang-It-All"

Experience a tribute to the timeless sensibilities of Charles & Ray Eames, designed by Art of Play in close collaboration with The Eames Office.

Charles and Ray Eames brought a sense of playfulness to mid-century design, imbuing everyday objects with unexpected joy. Art of Play's second edition of Eames Playing Cards embraces this approach with a celebration of their iconic "Hang-It-All" wall rack.

The first thing you'll notice is the jubilant colour palette of the early 1950s. The visual motif is a clear homage to the stick and ball components of the original design. However, whilst adapting the Hang-It-All to a new form, there was a surprising discovery... by replacing traditional playing card symbols with numerals, the cards not only become more logical, but visually cohesive. So, inspired by the rebellious spirit Ray and Charles were famous for, Art of Play decided to ditch the aristocracy entirely and adopt a more minimalist approach. You will not find any Kings or Queens in this deck; the cards are simply numbered 1-13, a subtle but gently revolutionary gesture that the team have never attempted before.
