Calendar. Living slowly and living with stress

BRIEF.
This is an open brief which requires the expression of our inner core values through the means of visual communication in various mediums.
 
OBJECTIVE.
Living slowly and living with stress are two principles that I practice as a designer.
 
INSPIRATION / TOPIC.
I enjoy slow living because slow living allows me to be more focus and meticulous. Stress make me feel nervous but at the same time it pushes me to pick up the pace in accepting the challenges. Stress often motivate me in innovating the problem solving method and able to finish my task on time as I am a person who never give up.
 
CONCEPT.
The calendar is used as a medium to talk about time.
LIVE SLOW.
 
FOCUS. / (planner)*
This book is made up from 12 different books in various sizes, with one book to represent one different month, and each month to be smaller than the previous month. The size of the book represents the level of focus required throughout the year.
METICULOUS. / (planner)*
A one year calendar book made with 366 pieces of paper. Each piece of paper is seperate into 2 colour, where the front is white (am) and the back is grey (pm). Each page is meticulously seperated into 72 lines, with each lines representing every 10 minutes of the day, to sum up every 24 hours of the day.
LIVE WITH STRESS.
 
ACCEPT CHALLEGES./ (memo pad)*
A paper roll dispenser in a wooden box that rolls out as a calendar memo pad and a puzzle game diagram. The puzzle represents the daily challenges to be recorded on the day to day calendar.
 
DAILY PROBLEM SOLVING DEVICE./ (table calendar)*
Perpetual block calendar
3 blocks (Date/0,1,2,3,4,5), (Date/0,1,2,6,7,8), (month/Jan - Dec)
The date of the day requires one to rotate the blocks in a particular order. Hence everyday is a new puzzle to solve.
Thank you !
