Trash Calendar

«All graphic design prod­ucts ulti­mately end up in trash. And many more ideas remain just ideas. We believe that the design idea in each project should have the power to act and be effec­tive dur­ing its short life. Only this way design really mat­ters. Only when we cre­ate ideas that are able to change the world our life mat­ters. Then, we do not regret a day, as we did not waste it.»

Main mes­sage is that design is worth-​​while. Design should sur­round us every time and every­where. And if design is based on a good idea, it really works and has power to influ­ence peo­ple and their activ­ity. Design defines moder­nity.



Every cal­en­dar day is a new trash bag. Every month is a roll of 31, 30 or 28 trash bags. The Cal­en­dar con­sists of 12 rolls and is divided into 4 quar­terly sets with 3 months-​​rolls. The date is printed on every bag so that you can see it when the bag is placed into the trash bin.
Most of the cal­en­dars imme­di­ately get into trash bin. For our cal­en­dar it is the result we are aim­ing for. It works even in trash and all the time makes peo­ple won­der why and how each day has been spent.
