About Kayan 2022 Takvim

Kayan 2022, bir mimarlık ofisi için tasarlanmış katlanır bir takvimdir. Takvim, kuşesiz ve odunsuz kağıda basılmış olup taşıması ve saklaması kolay, küçük bir kareye katlanır. Açıldığında ise sayfa, duvara ya da panoya asılabilecek büyük kare bir posterе dönüşür. Her ay geometrik bir formla temsil edilir ve tarihler bu formların çevresinde akar. Hafta sonları, hızlı okunabilirlik için farklı bir renkte basılmıştır. Boş bırakılan beyaz alanlar not almaya olanak tanır. Yıl sona erdiğinde poster ters çevrilerek mimari detaylardan oluşan bir kolaj sergilenebilir.

The dates are gray in color and the weekends are colored differently for easier identification. The numbers flow around the unique iconic shapes. Its design is very simple and can be easily read without the need of adding days above the dates. The poster is double sided, one side has the calendar design and the opposite side has a collage of architecture details.

Research: Digital research of similar unique calendar designs, check availability of materials in the market, Kuwait is a very limited market in terms of resources and can be challenging to find the right materials for the right project. But keeping it simple was the best decision made.
Inspiration: The logo was inspired by the "Kayan" logo design, using the simplified shapes from the logo (triangles and squares) they created 12 unique shapes in different forms that looks like a broken cube, each form creates a unique iconic shape. The geometric shapes represents the architecture designs that are developed by the architecture firm.
