Houses Architects Live In, 1977

The Stendig calendar has remained a classic for decades! It is not for the faint of heart at 48 inches wide by 36 inches high with bold black and white alternating pages (it even had a brief stint with color page in the 1980s). Designed in 1966 by Massimo Vignelli and has been produced every year since!

“We had always wanted to design a large calendar (3’ x 4’) with big numbers, visible from across a studio floor. Stendig provided us with such an opportunity. We designed the first one toward the end of 1966 and it was distributed in time for Christmas. By the end of December, it was already in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art. Thereafter, Stendig produced it for many years. It has inspired a number of more or less successful imitations.”

Using the Stendig Calendar by Massimo Vignelli as wrapping paper is satisfying.

The kitchen is illuminated by a skylight and by the sunlight that streams into the solarium. The owners enjoy dramatic 180-degree views of the meadow and coast as they dine.
