Tools of the Trade: Stendig Calendar

nubby twiglet typography

Originally designed by Massimo Vignelli in 1966, the Stendig now resides in the Design Collection of the Museum of Modern Art.

The calendar is set up in the ‘Eurpoean Style’ with Monday being the first day of the week and it rotates back and forth between black and white pages for each month. Not for the faint of heart, the Stendig measures an astounding three feet by four feet!

I had one of these beauties back in 2007 and the best part is, once you’re done with a month, you can use the sheets for wrapping paper, collage, craft projects and so much more!

Retailers that sell the calendar include Stendig, Unica Home, The Art Store and See Jane Work.
