Perpetuo! — Paper perpetual calendar
We have been looking for illustrating a story made of paper, ferrying the observer across a river of typography, history and atmospheres: a calendar with no beginning and no end, no months and no years, but only days and the flow of time.
Perpetuo! — Artifacts For The Home
From the moment it is freed from its packaging, Perpetuo! starts narrating the time spent together and day by day it will grow with us. The paper will change, yellowing and swelling, stained by the memories that we would have lived hand in hand, becoming a silent narrator of the fantastic journey that life represents.

Perpetuo! — Artifacts For The Home
Hour after hour, through the shadows that are created and bloom throughout the day, a visual tale is set up between the environment and the observer, devoted to emphasize the present. From the moment it is freed from its packaging, Perpetuo! starts narrating the time spent together and day by day it will grow with us.
The paper will change, yellowing and swelling, stained by the memories that we would have lived hand in hand, becoming a silent narrator of the fantastic journey that life represents. If it were to be smudged, scribbled on by our child, hot or cold, Perpetuo! will remember… never forgetting anything.

Artifacts For The Home
Visual architectures, enclosed in a book block of paper, on the surface of which, every day, different shadows will continuously appear, aimed only at narrating the passing of time and escorting the eye during its rustling.
