In my latest design, each of the twelve months of the year is adorned with lively artwork. To ensure the days of the year are easily visible, white numbers are placed on a matte blue background in the monthly layouts. To prevent the white numbers from blending with the month names, the month names are highlighted in yellow, and the first letter of each day is added below every month heading.

Here are some key details about this project

First and foremost, I created a matte blue page with dimensions of 1600×900 pixels for a realistic planning experience. I opted for a soft color palette to shape the overall look of my colorful 2024 calendar. For the graphical representation, I used randomly drawn objects inspired by stars. These shapes, in blue, yellow, orange, and white, fill the edges of the page, expanding the layout outwards.

Beyond the visuals, the progression of months and days holds great significance. Considering the critical nature of a calendar, I aimed to give it more of a planning-focused feel. Initially, I had to decide on color choices for the numbers and month headings. As the format requires the numbers to be prominent, I prepared the day numbers in white. To differentiate them from the month headings, I colored the headings yellow. I selected a large font size for both elements and used a segmented table width and length so that each month could be easily distinguished from the others.

Finally, one of the most critical parts was the prominently written, all-caps title that highlights the calendar view. Therefore, I preferred wide font styles.

If you’re looking for realistic designs, this one will meet your needs. It offers a complete graphic view with a fun design that creates an attractive impact. I’m sharing this add-on with you for free, but you deserve more. The articles I recently shared about the 2024 calendar visuals will give you a better idea.
