| DESIGN NAME: Tsunagaru Calendar PRIMARY FUNCTION: Calendar INSPIRATION: NTT East is a mainstay of telecommunications in Japan. As such, a universal quality that assures wide-ranging support across generations and genders is an essential component for its calendar. Bearing this in mind during the course of production, the “Connection Calendar” was created with the intention of generating unrestrained originality. UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: This calendar is a direct embodiment of the NTT East corporate slogan, “Strengthen the Connection.” The 12 calendar pages are bound together by a rubber cord, which combines with the graphic designs at either end complete the “Visual Connection.” The calendar was created to disseminate the corporate slogan by making connection visible and presenting the message in a comprehensible way. OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: Calendar sheets are bundled by a blue elastic cord. Users pull out a past calendar sheet from the cord and move it to back. PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: NTT EAST 2015 Calendar launched in January 2015. FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Graphics, Illustration and Visual Communication Design |
PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: The TSUNAGARU Calendar was realized through the finely detailed and highly advanced printing and processing technologies that are available in Japan, the country of quality manufacturing. SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: 180(w) x 140(h) x 85(d)mm TAGS: NTT East, calendar, Japan RESEARCH ABSTRACT: We discussed how client's concept can be embodied in calendar. We got an idea that a physical cord connects seasonal illustrations printed on calendar sheets. CHALLENGE: It is very difficult that we create 12 connecting illustration. We tested a thickness of the cord. If too slim, a calendar sheet is pulled out with no action. If too thick, it is not pulled out smoothly.
