Tempo Lab Plus Concept Uncut Sheet
Printed in Taiwan
Foiling is a manufacturing process that a layer of metallic foil is placed on the surface of the paper to give the card stock a metallic texture. This is the preferred process to portray a sense of futurism and the high-tech.
We decided to use double-sided, full-colored foil to present this concept product, and to apply this technology to our craft to the greatest extent possible. This has also been the biggest challenge in the entire product development process.
After numerous testing and proofing, we are able to present the final product you see here. The front and back of each card are entirely covered with metallic foil that extends to the edge of the card. What's more, owing to the application of sub thin technology, even sides of the deck are covered in metallic foil, the card stock still retains its light and thin feel and handling. At present, it maybe the thinnest cards that is covered in metallic foil on both sides in the world.
The TEMPO Lab Plus tuck box adds a sunlight color-changing effect on top of the original TEMPO Lab tuck box design. The appearance of the brand box is black and white under indoor light. Yet, when exposed to sunlight or UV light, the tuck box will undergo a color change process, from white to purple, in a couple of seconds. The light purple and gilded purple of the cards compliment each other, forming a shining light in the sun.
