Zero is the foundation of the cosmos. Without nothing, all would coalesce into one giant mass devoid of any form or composition. It is abstract, but the simplest concept to grasp, even by a toddler.
The beginning and some say the end of all, is the theme for our deck.
The design of the deck is inspired by the Art Deco movement of the 1920s and 1930s, a time when extraordinary leaps were made in the fields of physics and chemistry.
Each deck has a custom seal. The seal is a humourous take on the edition seal, where it now says "0/0".

The front of the tuck box is simple, there are no words, taglines, or branding, just the number zero in orange foil, held in between two brackets the cardinality of an empty set or null set in mathematics. The rings foiled in gunmetal are converging or diverging from the text signifying the nature of the number; the beginning, and the end of everything.
Only the central part of the front design is debossed taking inspiration from a black hole, except for the title of the deck which is raised, giving a tactile response as you feel the details of the tuck.
The back of the tuck is a cosmic representation of the number as if the number zero is held at the center of an abstract atom, and the whole cosmic existence is emerging from it. The ring's design is orange foiled intermittently coupled with a dark gun metal foil giving depth to the design. Furthermore, like the front of the tuck box, the back has only its central design debossed, giving further breathing room and depth to the spiraling abstract design that is central to the tuck box's back.
The top lid of the tuck box has the text "It All Began From Nothing" written on it in gun metal foiling.
The area surrounding the text is debossed with the text raised, giving a similar tactile response as the front and back of the case.
The left side of the case has our branding in orange foil, raised amidst a debossed negative space.
The right similarly has the name of our card producer Legends Playing Cards Co foiled beautifully amidst a debossed abstract frame.
