Designer Paul Smith re-imagines the aesthetic look of traditional domino sets with a feminine diagonal design. These diamond-shaped dominos come in an array of fun neon colors that will make playing games that much more luxurious.
The Oblique domino sets by Smith revolutionize the look of dominos for a modernist crowd. Ditching the traditional white and black color scheme of regular rectangular dominos, Smith opts for a trapezoid shape that adds a slenderness to these board game pieces. Each piece is then decked out in a rosy pink color on one side and a navy blue on the other. The dual coloring creates a psychedelic look that is complemented by the minimalist pin-sized holes that are drilled in to each piece to indicate the clip's numerical value.
