Getting a glance of an entire year can be overwhelming for some, but the 2013 Linear Calendar really helps people to organize yearly events that might be a pain to oversee when dealing with traditional month-by-month calendars. Those who rely on electronic calendar versions may have an even tougher time because they are limited to their screen size. Hence, the Linear Calendar is doubly practical--at least for certain uses.
Designed by the Made Shop, a design studio based in Massachusetts, the 2013 Linear Calendar organizes each month on its own line. They are interestingly staggered left to right in order to keep the days of the week properly aligned. This strategy also helps to pick out the months easier.
