Charles and Ray Eames designed the Medium House of Cards in continuation of the original House of Cards deck beloved since the 1950s. Each card depicts a different object, all of which Charles and Ray refer to as “the good stuff” chosen to celebrate “familiar and nostalgic objects from the animal, vegetable, and mineral kingdoms.” The Small House of Cards originally had two decks; a picture and a pattern deck. This Medium House of Cards features the images from the pattern deck.
The six slots on each card enable the player to interlock the cards so as to build structures of myriad shapes and sizes.
