Felix Checkers
project overview
The Felix Checkers set reimagines the traditional strategy game as a sophisticated object of leisure. Designed for Madheke, this piece elevates the gaming experience by merging classic gameplay with high-contrast materiality. It stands not just as a source of entertainment, but as a refined centerpiece for the modern study or lounge—where the logic of the game meets the precision of luxury design.

Constructed with an emphasis on tactile feedback, the set features a premium leather inlay playing board framed by high-gloss polished nickel trims. The distinction between materials is sharp and deliberate: the warmth of the leather contrasts with the cool, reflective surfaces of the nickel components. Inside, a faux suede lining ensures the pieces are housed with care, completing a design that is as satisfying to handle as it is to display.
