The Lissitzky Calendar

I designed this calendar as an homage to a famous designer in graphic design history. I chose El Lissitzky who is famous for his use of color and shape. I wanted to create a calendar that was more compositional than functional and create a system where each shape correlates to a specific day of the week. This allowed me to break from the traditional iconography of calendar systems and create Lissitzky style compositions.

Monday - Rectangle
Tuesday - Quadrilateral
Wednesday - Half Circle
Thursday - Triangle
