About Irozuki Fasti Murales

Irozuki fasti murales sunt qui colorem singulis mensibus mutant. Quisque mensis colorem et vultum diversum ostendit, ita ut fasti intra interiorem simplicem ornatum colore variam addant. Cum mensis finitur, folium confectum ad tergum fastorum transfertur. Post sex menses, omnia folia simul vertuntur et alia colorum coniunctio apparet. Tantum sex chartae impressae ad duodecim menses adhibentur. Fasti sunt 220 mm per 260 mm dimensi. Involucrum ad formam floris factum est et ex chartis duplicibus incisum, ita ut forma in quolibet expositu servetur.

Unique Properties: Irozuki is a calendar which is changing the color every month and having the enjoyable mood like an interior.
As the seconds tick away and every season’s transition, the calendar lives with you through the year.
Every month the calendar shows different colors and expressions.
We wish every one of your lives turns colorful.
Dimensions & Packaging: Calendar: 220mm x 260mm

Production Technology: How to use
Step 1: When the month is over, bring the finished one to the back of the calendar.
Step 2: After 6 months, bring June to the back of the calendar.
Step 3: Turn over all papers together and the rest of 6 months starts with Irozuki.
You can enjoy the different colours every month after bringing a piece of the calendar to the back. 6 months later, another colour combinations will appear for you.
We could make this changing point by using only 6 papers for 12 months.
Design Challenge: The package design part was the most challenging point of this. We wanted to pack this calendar like a flower but it was very difficult to keep their flower shape because it must be hung.
So we designed a flower-shaped package’s basement with double cutting papers.
Then we could keep it like a flower on any display.
Research: We went to lots of stores and exhibitions related with calendar and lifestyle for researching about colorful calendars and products. And our friends’ houses as well, for researching reality. Then we figured out a colorful calendar would be able to be a colorful interior/product cheaper than stylish designers products.
We believe a simple lifestyle, a simple interior are very good choices. But we decided to make Irozuki as a beautiful spot color like a cool interior product.
Inspiration: We aim to make a calendar like monthly flowers.
We believe a simple lifestyle, a simple interior are very good choices. But we recommend adding Irozuki as a beautiful spot colour like a cool interior product.
Project Duration: This project term was from October 2019 to November 2019 in Tokyo, Japan.
