“Ayo” Chess Set by @philion.cgi
Ayo is a traditional board game that’s played by the Yoruba people where two players attempt to “capture” their opponent’s seeds.
Defined by two of six pockets, the board game is rectangular by design and features a similar premise to the game of chess. Inspired by the games’ similarities, African designer Philion merged the two by abstracting the shapes of conventional chess pieces into rounded forms and incorporating pockets into the chessboard. While the game of chess is being played, using the layout and look of Ayo gives the board a unique personality.
The chessboard takes on a minimalist profile, with natural wooden elements and a free-flowing design.

I’m not saying we need to redesign chess, I just think we can have fun with the boards.
[images: Four stylized illustrated chessboards. The first two have a spiraling pattern with circuitry, one in green, black and blue and the other in purples and golds. The third chessboard is aqua and red on white with strange patterns and fantasy cartoon chess pieces in thin linework. The last is a chessboard in greens, oranges and yellows depicting flowers on all the tiles where the pieces would be.]
Bonus: Checkers:
[image: 32 circles with spirals and circuitry patterns on them. Half are purple, half are yellow.]
