| DESIGN NAME: Anaptár 2019 London PRIMARY FUNCTION: Lunar Calendar INSPIRATION: I conducted a survey some years ago on how people see a year. It turned out that almost everyone saw it linearly. It seemed that it was cyclical only in my head, that is I saw it in a unique way. The Moon has fascinated me since I was a child. I wonder why it appears at different heights and in different sizes in different phases of its cycle. This curiosity led me to design the first Anaptár, the creation of which is a rather meticulous but loveable task for me. UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Anaptár is a unique, informative poster calendar, which is a source of fascinating new discoveries. It provides lots of information beside enumerating days: visualizing data on the Sun and the Moon in a new way the calendar shows the movement of these planets in the sky. There have been other calendars with circular designs, but this data visualizing method is unexampled. It literally makes astronomic correlations visible. OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: Anaptár is a special lunar cycle infographics, which shows seasons, months, weeks, days and holidays of a given year as well as solstices, equinoxes, the beginning and the end of summer and wintertime (daylight saving time), and even information like hours of sunshine, dawn, sunrise, culmination of the Sun, sunset, dusk, lunar cycles, moonrise, moonset, culmination of the Moon, declination of the Moon and the alteration of the distance between the Moon and the Earth. And because of the radial arrangement this huge amount of data is incorporated in a spectacular, complex and yet easily comprehensible system. Thanks to the extremely precise infographic mapping of the calendar data and of the parameters of the orbit of the Moon, and the unique graphic and typographic features, Anaptár offers exciting visual experiences even for those viewers who are usually not captured by details. Maybe this data visualization could be changed the children's thinking connected to the time passing and the nature around us. It could be a learning helper system in elementary schools too. PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: Anna designed her first Anaptár in 2009 and has come out with a new issue every year. From that time there were designed more than 30 versions for 13 different cities (from Tokyo to Sydney) in five different languages (from hungarian to french). Anaptár is the result of exceptionally meticulous work: all the versions made for various cities are different because the represented data are specific to the given city only.
