Fedrigoni 365
is a project to commemorate the year 2018 by asking leading UK-based creatives to contribute a piece of work to a design
compendium, which takes the form of the Fedrigoni annual Calendar.
The result of this process is a striking black tome that holds 365 single-colour designs within.The only condition of the brief was that we had to use black paper, silver ink, and the number had to look like the date being represented.
As always, we wanted to give the illustration some meaning and found that the 27th of May is a celebration of ‘Japanese Navy Forces Day’ illustrating a ship with the hull creating the number ‘7’ and the number ‘2’ being represented as a swan. As it says in the book, “A coincidence of the natural form of the sea, resulting in two contrasting elements unified.”
