Qaaim Goodwin's office calendar is a [sliding wooden creation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ofiistory-desk-supplies) that would look great on anyone's desk. Instead of paper or electronic calendars, Goodwin's creation is designed to be used perpetually.

To change the month or day in Qaaim Goodwin's office calendar, just slide the appropriate rulers out into view. The calendar can be displayed both vertically and horizontally, and is far more attractive to me than boring paper calendars.

**Implications** - Citizens living in urban areas live very fast-paced lives and need to maintain strict schedules. These consumers require products that will help them manage their time effectively. Companies can appeal to busy demographics by manufacturing [organizational products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tower-desk1) that are efficient and compact.
