Good Morning Original Calendar 2012 “Farm” Calendar

good morning original calendar 2012 Farm Calendar is an innovative paper craft calendar design that seamlessly integrates functionality with interactive engagement, created by Art Director Katsumi Tamura and Designer Takahiro Sugawara. This sophisticated piece of graphic design, measuring 210mm x 297mm, transforms from a flat sheet into a delightful miniature farm scene complete with six different animal figures, each representing a two-month calendar period.

Launched in July 2011, this calendar exemplifies excellence in visual communication design through its innovative approach to temporal organization and spatial transformation. The design earned the prestigious Platinum A' Design Award in the Graphics, Illustration and Visual Communication Design category, recognizing its exceptional contribution to the field of graphic design and its ability to merge practical functionality with engaging interactive elements. The calendar's sophisticated engineering allows it to transition from a two-dimensional printed sheet into a three-dimensional display piece, demonstrating remarkable technical excellence in paper engineering while maintaining aesthetic appeal and practical utility as a time-keeping device.
