About Irozuki पञ्चाङ्गम्
इरोज़ुकी इति भित्तिपञ्चाङ्गं यत् प्रतिमासं वर्णं परिवर्तयति। प्रत्येकं मासः भिन्नं वर्णं भिन्नां च अभिव्यक्तिं दर्शयति, अतः इदं पञ्चाङ्गं सरलस्य अन्तः-अलङ्करणस्य मध्ये वर्णरञ्जितं विशेषचिह्नम् इव कार्यं करोति। यदा मासः समाप्तो भवति, तदा पूर्णं पत्रं पञ्चाङ्गस्य पृष्ठभागं प्रति स्थानान्तरितं भवति। षण्मासानन्तरं सर्वाणि पत्राणि एकत्र परिवर्त्यन्ते, तेन वर्णसंयोजनानां द्वितीयः समुच्चयः प्रकटो भवति। द्वादशमासार्थं केवलं षट् मुद्रितपत्राणि एव उपयुज्यन्ते। पञ्चाङ्गस्य परिमाणं द्विशतविंशति मिलिमीटरम् (220 mm) गुणित द्विशतषष्टि मिलिमीटरम् (260 mm) इति भवति। आवरणपेटिका पुष्पस्य आकारेण निर्मिता, द्विस्तरीयपत्रेभ्यः कर्तिता, येन तस्याः आकृतिः कस्मिन्नपि प्रदर्शने सुरक्षिता तिष्ठति।

- 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.
