Radnelac is a Radical Almanac which reads ‘Calendar’ when spelt backwards. It works on the premise of 31 days instead of the traditional 12 months. To check 4th of July you’ll have to turn to page no. 4, and for Christmas, you’ll have to visit page 25. There’s space if you wish to jot your favored turkey recipe.

This year, the 31 designs of Radnelac are inspired by Walter Gropius’ Bauhaus Movement that began in Germany in 1919. Simplicity sans ornamentation became the most influential wave in modern design, architecture, industry and typography. Interestingly, ‘Bauhaus’ is an inversion of the German term ‘hausbau’ which means ‘house building’ or ‘house construction’.

With this calendar, don't just welcome 2025. It works for 2031, 2042, 2053, 2059, 2070, 2081, 2087, 2098, 2110, 2121...
