Paper Fruit Date Keepers

The New Flavours 2014 Calendar by Nearly Normal Craft is Vibrant

— January 24, 2014 — Art & Design
The New Flavours 2014 Calendar would brighten up any one's day. It is a date keeper comprised of vibrant colorful images of fruit. Yet these are not one's typical produce. Instead, they have been creatively folded out of paper. Yet they take the art of origami to the next level since they are so full of detail, which happens to include patterns and all.

Designed by Victoria Bee, Cris Wiegandt and Margherita Gaffarelli of London-based Nearly Normal Craft, the New Flavours 2014 Calendar can be considered more art than stationery. The dates have been pushed to the side and rendered very subtly so that the images of the 'fruit' are given precedence. But no one would have it any other way.
Trend Themes
1. Art-inspired Paper Calendars - Opportunity for artists and designers to create unique and visually appealing calendars by incorporating elements of art and creativity.
2. Innovative Origami Designs - Possibility for artists and craftsmen to explore new techniques and create intricate origami designs that push the boundaries of traditional paper folding.
3. Vibrant and Visually Appealing Stationery - Market potential for stationery brands to create bold and colorful products that stand out and bring joy to customers.
Industry Implications
1. Art and Design - Disruptive potential for artists and designers to innovate and create unique calendar concepts that appeal to art enthusiasts.
2. Craftsmanship and Paper Industry - Opportunity for craftsmen and paper manufacturers to develop new techniques and materials for creating intricate and visually stunning origami designs.
3. Stationery and Gift Industry - Potential for stationery brands to tap into the demand for vibrant and visually appealing products that can be used as gifts or personal stationery.
