Calendar
Dimension: 30cm(H) x 250cm(L)
Since the food we eat reflects the changes in nature, the book has a calendar attached that allows the viewer to chart and follow these changes. The Calendar measures 30cm (H)x 250cm (L) when unfolded, or it could be tucked behind the book, acting also as a chapter marker for each of the seasons for the book. This serves as a meaningful way to mark the seasons and take note of the changes within the nature around us, thus gives a deeper meaning to celebrating the seasons in Singapore.
