Dutch graphic designer Karel  Martens \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003ecreates a unique design for each day of the year. Originally constructed using his signature method of printing letterpress monoprints from found metal forms, he then digitizes the prints and creates 365 compositions in total. It's a hefty calendar, but you can save each day's design and re-use the paper to wrap small gifts or construct homemade envelopes (Karel would appreciate such  resourcefulness!).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- 736 pages, color illustrations\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- 6\"x8\", written in English\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Published by Roma Publications\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKarel Martens\u003c\/strong\u003e is a Dutch graphic designer, artist, and educator known for his experimental approach to typography and print.
