This project brings together art, design, and storytelling through twelve mixed-media illustrations — one for each month of the year. Every composition was created using a combination of manual and digital collage techniques, blending textures, colors, and imagery to evoke the atmosphere and rhythm of the seasons.
Each month’s illustration captures the essence of its time of year — from the quiet renewal of January to the warmth of autumn — while featuring Giustacchini’s wide range of products: from office and school supplies to home décor and gardening tools.
A distinctive element that unites all the collages is the presence of an animal — a recurring motif that adds both personality and symbolism. Each animal reflects the spirit of the month or connects with a featured product: a robin in the winter months, a fox in October, or playful dinosaurs in September inspired by children’s backpacks.
The creative process involved defining a mood, selecting a color palette, and visually weaving Giustacchini’s products into imaginative, vintage-inspired compositions. The result is a calendar that transcends its functional role to become a visual narrative — a year-long journey celebrating creativity, craftsmanship, and the poetic harmony between nature, design, and everyday life.
