Visual design for Contraband, a two player card game written by David Rusak in which smugglers and border guards vie for control of an international border crossing. The cards and mat are designed to be distributed as digital files and printed inexpensively. Contraband was exhibited at the Detroit Design Festival in September 2011 as part of the Border Town project. For the exhibition edition, the mat design was hand screen printed onto muslin.
