Calendar Designs

Calendars and all that jazz...

So one of the other products / range for my brief that i shall be designing will be a bi-monthly calendar, with details on when and where the artists are playing and the releases of any singles / albums. So here is the beginning to looking into designing a calendar.





Here is a really nice, well thought design. Firstly it is arranged via the use of colour, designating a series of colours for the months, the colder ones being blue and the hot being orange / red! Colour for me will be mostly used in terms of designating the range of the calendars, as it shall be a series of 12(at this moment in time) but this shows how colour can be used to organise the calendar.
Im also fond of the fold and the way the book expands out. Format is an important factor and essentially anything is possible, but i like how it expands out to something quite big! My first thoughts for my own design is to have something like an A1 split down the middle, so it is a thin long piece of paper, that folds out like the example above to form some kind of large wall poster.




Helvetica, standard, Nice idea an' all.
