Danese Milano Calendario Bilancia perpetual wall calendar

Calendario Bilancia is a wall calendar designed for Danese Milano that emphasizes the passing of time through gesture and balance. Composed of a central wooden pivot on which four horizontal strips of different types of wood slide, each screen-printed with days, numbers, and months, the calendar reinterprets the typology of the scale, reversing its function: from a measuring tool to a tool for perceiving time. Its light and dynamic structure, based on the principle of balance, invites conscious and meditative interaction, making each day a small ritual. Available in Italian or English, it is a perfect example of Danese Milano's design philosophy, which blends design, craftsmanship, and concept.
