Evolution of Gaming

The Evolution of Gaming is a series of ten cards inspired by The Eames's “House of Cards”. The ten, interlocking cards display a variety of video game consoles dating from the 1970s leading into modern-day consoles, all displaying different colors with a halftone effect on the cards. The backs of the cards present the anatomy of letters and numbers relating to the consoles.

These cards were a great opportunity to test out the halftone effect since I wanted to make the consoles seem older as typically seen in an older photo. The colors displayed on each card were inspired by the Xbox’s button colors: red, yellow, blue, and green. The cards include both the console and controller.
