DESIGN NAME: The Year of Roaster
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Calendar
INSPIRATION: Inspired by colorful paintings decorated by Vietnamese families in Lunar New Year festival occasion, we turned a boring traditional calendar of numbers into vibrant pictures tell stories on the wall. According to the Vietnamese 12-year circle of zodiac, 2017 is the year of roaster, the creature is a proverbial mascot to the five virtues – responsibility, fidelity, courage, kindness, and confidence. Feng shui practitioners paint a red Rooster on walls to safeguard the home and bring good lucky.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The design concept is a combination of traditional spirit to be suitable for Lunar New Year atmosphere and modern brand visual languages. We assigned each watercolor painting in per month page to tell a bespoke story of a successful and happy moment of banking user which is a good match with a special day or a notable celebration remarked on the calendar. Developing from the bank's logo, patterns with slightly different shades subtly appear page over page to decorate as well as evoke the brand.

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: The block calendar was printed in 7 colors metalize halogram backed with MDF 3mm while the table calendar was backed with simili and 2mm carton. To make the calendar more elegant and glossy, we covered selected areas with metalic coloured foil. Very clear shiny elements attract attention thanks to a completely different reflection of light. We also applied UV spot varnish on matte surface and hot stamping makes selected elements, such as logo, graphics, pattern beautifully stand out. All calendar boxes are color printed in Duplex 230.
