Campsite Games Mid-Century Inspired Illustrated Card Deck

Travel has become a little … complicated over the past few years, and more and more of us are revelling in the simple pleasures of getting back to nature and the joys of the humble camping trip.

Enter Campsite Games, a mid-century inspired illustrated card deck featuring 50 fun camping games perfect for outdoor adventures. This deck combines classic games like Celebrity Heads, Scattergories, and Flashlight Tag with a vibrant color palette and retro charm. I worked with Smith Street Books on this dream project, designing each card’s playful illustrations, back layouts, and a camping-inspired box design that complements the spirit of outdoor adventure. The retro-inspired aesthetic brings a timeless charm to this fun, interactive game, ensuring it stands out on the shelf and brings joy to your night under the stars.

Card Illustrations

The card illustrations and color palette draw heavy inspiration from mid-century illustration aesthetics. Think clean shapes, bold lines, and a touch of whimsy reminiscent of those classic vintage children's books. When it came to selecting subjects, I went with themes that fit the cards but also infused a bit of that Americana camping spirit whenever possible.
