Brynga led the complete design of the Mint Playing Cards, crafted by Christofer Lacoste, delivering a custom deck built to stand out commercially and visually.
The design combined strong brand identity, collector appeal, and market positioning to maximize launch performance. This resulted in a record-breaking Kickstarter campaign that raised over $150,000 in just 30 days, earned a front page feature on Kickstarter and gained massive PR traction. The deck quickly became one of the most recognizable playing cards worldwide and is now sold globally. Building on that success, the second release generated over $500,000 and was fully funded in just 3 MINUTES – reinforcing its status as a top performing product in this category.
Final Thoughts
Mint Playing Cards launched as a category-defining product, raising over $150K in 30 days, earning front-page placement on Kickstarter, and gaining global recognition. The second release scaled even further, generating over $500K and funding in just 3 minutes, proving the power of design-driven demand and brand-led product success.
