The Challenge

Design 13 sheets (cover + 12 months) of visual system graphics. In all cases the final project must present an aesthetic value and quality. Functional elements of a calendar (days of the week or months of the year) may be limited if needed.

The Requiem

Requiem, also known as Mass for the dead, is a Mass in the Catholic Church offered for the repose of the soul. The Requiem Mass inspired a large number of musical compositions, including settings by Mozart (though uncompleted), Verdi, Berlioz, Dvořák, Fauré, and others. Many of the texts in the Requiem Mass have been set to music. The exact musical structure differs by the composer but mostly includes these texts:

Month	Latin Title	English Translation
1	Introitus	Introduction
2	Kyrie	Have Mercy
3	Dies Irae	Day of Wrath
4	Tuba Mirum	Hark, the Trumpet
5	Rex Tremendae	The Tremendous King
6	Recordare	Remember
7	Introitus	Introduction
8	Kyrie	Have Mercy
9	Domine Jesu	Lord Jesus
10	Agnus Dei	Lamb of God
11	Lux Aeterna	Eternal Light
12	In Paradisum	Into Paradise

The Calendar

The Cover

The package is designed to resemble a casket, to add to the calendar’s metaphor as the afterlife. As the viewers go through the calendar, they follow the dead’s journey after death.
