Calendar Design

For a typography class, I was tasked with designing a calendar in an unusual layout. On the calendar I needed to include goals for myself, the nation, and the world, no matter how unrealistic they were. Little did I know the COVID-19 pandemic would hit and prevent a majority of my goals from happening. I chose to do a flip calendar that had hand-cut letters visible for every month. An open calendar would reveal the layout of the days as well as any resolutions for that month.
