Surprisingly, the deck finds an upstanding counterpart in a UNO-inspired Componibili unit. This stylish modular storage product features hole-grip doors adorned in UNO’s signature colors: red, yellow, green, and blue, set against a pristine white body. Nodding to this marriage of art, design, and play, the distinctive container also graces the UNO x Kartell deck in the form of a Wild Card.
