Brief: Design and manufacture 10 identical products to sell at the Georgia tech Industrial Design Student Showcase (Launchpad). Products should be designed to be manufactured in the most efficient way possible.
Context: Inspired by the shift in seasonal flora, I wanted to take the classic rip away calendar, but make it multifunctional. With this in mind, I set out to design a calendar that's meant to be ripped, written on, collaged, but most importantly, be desirable enough for the market to want.
Process: Designing for one, producing for many.
Details: "The details are not the details. They make the design." - Charles Eames
Classic fonts turned modern to build nostalgia.
Translucent vellum paper to hint at the upcoming graphics.
Over 150+ graphics to look forward to: a reason to keep coming back.
