Project Description
Every year around the holidays we like to make a little something for our wonderful agency partners and you know, have fun and get a little "designy." This year we decided to give ourselves a few parameters–make it from a standard tabloid sheet and use one ink color. And make something cool that you can actually use! So we came up with a calendar that folds into a triangle and fits snugly under our monitors.We also noted agency holidays with a little dot because you can't forget the Leo Burnett Breakfast!
Production Lesson(s)
The challenge was making the most out of set parameters for the production of over 200 calendars.
