Community and Togetherness

Fedrigoni 365 is an annual book that asks 365 UK-based designers, illustrators and photographers to contribute a piece of work. 2021's coveted calendar project is unlike any previous, as digital printing has allowed each book to be entirely unique from cover to cover, with no two copies the same. Through the use of cutting-edge digital printing technology by print partner Ricoh, the project is no longer limited to 365 contributors, instead inviting the industry at large to submit their own designs. Each book contains a unique collection of 365 designs, randomly collated from the hundreds of contributions.

Every participating creative produced a numeric design from 1–31 and seed word(rather than a specific date), with each publication a programmatic compilation from the overall pool of submissions. As a result there was no limit on the number of creatives who took part, and eventually included just shy of 1,000 designs.
