About Draw One Calendario

Draw One è un calendario a forma di scatola di fazzoletti. Ogni foglio riporta stampata una singola data e ogni giorno l'utente ne estrae uno per aggiornare il calendario. Un foglio estratto non può essere riutilizzato, a riflettere la natura irreversibile del tempo. Un'apertura sul fronte lascia intravedere i fogli rimanenti e ciò che resta dell'anno. La scatola è realizzata con tavole di legno tagliate secondo misure standard, incise a laser, assemblate con colla ecologica e trattate a cera per preservare la texture naturale del legno. L'intento è invitare gli utenti a dare valore al tempo.

Inspiration
This is a calendar that can be used like a paper towel. Each piece of paper is the date of the day, one per day, and each day is unique. After the paper is drawn, it cannot be used again.

Project Duration
The project started in October 2020 in Yantai, with model making around November 2020 and completion in early January 2021 in Beijing.
Operation Flow
