Developing Desk Pad’s Brand New Layout for 2019

Desk Pad Calendars

We want to show you beautiful update to our Desk Pad Calendars! Sales of Desk Pad Calendars have decreased over the last few years, but the changes we’ve made to them should re-energize this format in the BrownTrout line.

Design of our Desk Pad Calendars has been, more or less, the same since 2012. They were set up just like the square calendars—even utilizing the square grid—with a photo placed to the right. Not bad, but not particularly exciting.

This year, we’ve completely revamped the look into one that’s fresh and modern! The main photo is now splayed across the top and fades into a beautiful flood of complementary color, making it extremely eye-catching. You also get a tease of all the other images in the calendar from the thumbnails that border the bottom of every page. Notice that, just like a web page might display images, these border images are faded back, but come to life one by one for each month.

The layouts for Desk Pad Calendars are now fully aligned across entire desk pad line, so all can be displayed together and still look like a set, even though the content is quite different. There’s plenty of room for appointments within each grid, writing lines for notes, and modern, open space you can use as you see fit. And just like our Continental & Grand and the FranklinCovey titles, there’s a full year of mini-grids on every page, rotating forward every month—so by the time you get to the December 2019 page, the minis run through October 2020—great for future planning!

Our new Desk Pad Calendars are truly an updated, clean design, and are gorgeous to boot—we love the new look!

Pantone 2019 12 x 12 Inch Monthly Square Wall Calendar, Stationery Spring Summer Colorful

You may have seen a placeholder cover, that would have given you an idea of our direction; it’s been a longer-than-normal timeframe to get to our Pantone - Colors of Nature Square Wall Calendar approved concept. We've worked hard to build our relationship with this new license, overcoming time and language differences (the agency is in Milan) and learning the do's and don'ts of the brand (we are now on version 22 on the design of the calendar).

It's been worth it! We feel that what we have now is the best use and representation of the Pantone brand for a wall calendar. Bright, vibrant and ties color to our everyday lives, which is Pantone's mission.
