02 / FROM IDEA TO OBJECT

It started with
“Can I make
this?”

A puzzle cube. Paper labels.
And a lot of curious twists.

An Instagram video sparked a simple idea: turn an ordinary puzzle cube into a calendar.

The first DateCube began with handwritten labels and plenty of trial and error. Getting the right letters into place was only half the puzzle. Getting them to face the right way was the other half.

After repeated relabelling, twisting and manual testing, the prototype could display any date. A small experiment had become a real object on the desk.

Now, the next chapter is about turning that working prototype into a thoughtfully finished product.

03 / SMALL OBJECT. EVERYDAY JOY.

A permanent place
for a changing date.

Year after year.

A perpetual calendar, ready to be reset and reused. No new calendar needed when January comes around.

Entirely hands-on.

A physical puzzle you set yourself. No charging, no batteries, no app needed to display your date.

A clever little puzzle.

Letters and numbers share the cube. Their position and orientation turn setting a date into a spatial challenge.

A FEW GOOD QUESTIONS

Curious?

What exactly is DateCube?

DateCube is a physical perpetual calendar built from a 3×3 twisty puzzle cube. You arrange one face to display the weekday, month and date.

Can it display every date?

Yes. The working prototype has been manually verified to display any weekday, month and date, including February 29. It shows the date you set; it doesn’t advance automatically.

Do I have to solve all six sides?

No. Your goal is to arrange the date on a single face. There’s still a puzzle to solve: the letters and numbers need the right position and orientation.

Is the cube in the photo the final product?

The photo shows our handmade working prototype, including its paper labels and stand. Final materials, finish, packaging and included accessories are still being developed.

When can I buy one?

DateCube is preparing for launch. Pricing, launch timing and ordering details haven’t been announced yet. This page will be updated as those details are confirmed.
