From Belgian publisher Stockmans Art Books:

Reg Herygers creates fascinating typographical experiments for every month of 2021. One day is added to each week by means of the Japanese lucky number 8 and a surprising thirteenth month complements the series. 13 numerical shapes play a game of light and dark, while concealing each other. They merge together in a colourful abstraction that makes one forget time.

The calendar is used to playfully denounce the rat race of daily life and to compensate for lack of time. "Eight Days a Week, Thirteen Months a Year" indicates more time for oneself and especially for the people you care about!

Part of the profits of this project will go to Tejo, an organisation dedicated to vulnerable young people between 10–20 years old. In these challenging times it is more necessary than ever to pay attention to our younger generation to create a perspective on a sustainable future.

The calendar, printed on G-Snow by Arctic Paper, uses Europa for months and numbers on the bottom of each page, with Europa’s alternate single story a activated. The information part can be separated from the artwork by tearing it of along a perforated line. The artwork for each month is based on the numerals of some of seven more sans-serif typefaces.

Narrative designed a series of three boxes and booklets for real estate firm Ogic to present their bid for the Clos Saint-Louis urban development project. The visual identity created highlights the project’s ambition: make a landscaped neighbourhood crossed over by a stream.

Booklets are typeset with Baron Neue. It was selected because of its glyphs which reflect the historic past of the site. Wigrum, from Production Type, is chosen for its ease of reading.
