Sketchy Calendar: Bridging the Gap Between Digital and Analog

This project explores a novel calendar concept—the Sketchy Calendar—that aims to combine the flexibility of paper calendars with the convenience of digital ones. Traditional digital calendars, while powerful, lack personalization and support for informal plans. Paper calendars, conversely, offer flexibility but lack the syncing and sharing capabilities of their digital counterparts. The Sketchy Calendar starts with a digital notebook, adding minimal structure to retain the personalized expression of paper calendars while achieving the convenience of digital features. This includes interconnected daily, weekly, and monthly views, integration of sketched annotations with formal calendar events, and exploring how shared calendars and calendar invites might work in such a semi-structured system. The project investigates how users can personalize their calendars with custom dynamic behavior, such as habit trackers or time trackers.
