Enzo Mari 1959 | Endless Wall Calendar

The Bilancia is a wall calendar that emphasizes the passage of time by requiring human intervention to methodically change the dates each day. The days of the week, months, and dates are printed on four horizontal strips made from different types of wood. These strips slide over a single central wooden pivot, framing the current date combination. Built on a balance of thin wooden strips, the structure reverses the function of a traditional scale; instead of weighing weights, it balances the days, months, and dates, thus redefining the concept of the classical calendar.

DESIGNER OF THE PRODUCT

Enzo Marie

Enzo Mari (1932–2020) is known as the rebellious spirit of Italian design. After studying in Milan, he worked in advertising agencies in the late 1950s, bridging the gap between art and industry. With his "Autoprogettazione" project, published in 1974, he transformed design into an accessible activity: a booklet depicting the construction of simple furniture from wooden planks became a manifesto for democratic design. With his critical perspective that questioned the zeitgeist, his humorous style, and his emphasis on social responsibility, Mari enriched our cultural heritage as an educator, an activist, and a legendary designer.
