Concept
Within the module, I developed a 53-strip calendar project, structured by week. The calendar is designed to be hung horizontally on a wall. This format allows for clearer time and event planning throughout the year. That is why my calendar includes ample space for entries, both by day of the week and in extra boxes for notes. Everything is executed in a charming style; the characters change from season to season but remain recognizable cats.
The calendar is designed as a means of minimal user support. Each character says a supportive or encouraging phrase. They check in on the user, remind them to shop, take a break, study better, or find balance in life.
Stylistics
Stylization of the loaf with elements of hand-drawn techniques and neurography. To avoid copyright issues, I created a unique kitten character, which was then provided to the AI assistant CHATGPT.A signature and a color palette were also included. The AI acted as a character generator, basing its work on prompts and visual materials.
Calendar
Monthly themed characters are introduced, and the color palette for each month changes. Furthermore, a slight layout variation occurs from season to season to ensure visual diversity.
