”ZIRKUS“ is an illustrated playing cards deck, consisting of 60 different illustrations. The playing cards are inhabited by various circus-themed characters, – from clowns and wizards to the ladies & gentlemen in the audience. Each number forms a character category.

In 2019 Julia Presslauer and Felix Malmborg, two Viennese students, illustrators and card game enthusiasts started sketching on card designs. Throughout 2020, this collaborative project grew into a full playing card game. Finally, the cards were printed in 2021.
