2009 WALL CALENDAR »1/1«
THE TASK
2009 wall calendar for Papierfabrik Scheufelen.
THE CHALLENGE
A calendar, each of whose sheets is as individual as each person: impossible?
THE SOLUTION
Possible! Strichpunkt developed a calendar for 2009 which was printed in 2,009 signed copies and includes 24,108 unique items: unique sheets were composed from 12 motifs each on the elements of fire, water, air and earth as well as love. More than 1,500 variants were run through the computer before the design principle was finalised. 50,000 individual sheets were then produced in 48 special colours and 12 refinement techniques in an offset printing process with the best ones chosen and bound as calendars. A unique experiment with a unique result. Partners: Eberl Print in Immenstadt and Verlag Hermann Schmidt in Mainz.
