(English) Design submitted by Laurin from Australia.
Laurin says: I had a dream of two waves merging to a centre point. Then I saw each wave flow back to it’s starting point.
(English) Design submitted by Peter from the UK.
Peter says: Ever since I started submitting designs for the blog I have been trying to think of a nice design based on Armour, Exoskeletons, and Mecha. This design is inspired by those things to achieve an bio-mechanical look. I wanted an industrial feel with a technical detailed look. “Vertebrae” is the result. This one probably isn’t for the ladies.
(English) Design submitted by Peter from the UK.
Peter says: This design is inspired by a combination of sci-fi and the natural world. I wanted to come up with a design that has a simple clutter free bio-mechanical look with a retro feel that could be worn as a piece of jewellery that happens to also tell the time. “Tentacle” was the result which looks like a cross between an arm from a “War of the worlds” tripod and a crustacean.
(English) Design submitted by Patrick from France.
Patrick says: I was influenced, inter alia, by the watch of Sam “Echo” which I find really beautiful.
(English) Design submitted by Heather from the USA.
Heather says: My brother actually came up with the idea for a watch called PART TIME, and originally designed the digits for it. I submitted these digits back then, but did not have a good presentation for it, so it never showed up on the blog. Now that my 3D skills have improved, I decided it is time for me to resubmit.
(English) Design submitted by Heather from the USA.
Heather says: I thought of the digits for this design while driving. The lights on the back of the car in front of me formed a curve, and I based the digits on similar curved shapes.
(English) Design submitted by Peter from the UK.
Peter says: I have submitted a few analogue designs in the past and most were perhaps a little too imaginative. They tended to be technically un-feasible and required expensive bespoke mechanisms to allow them to work. For this concept I decided to go back to basics and use a traditional disc style analogue time telling using similar construction to “Uzumaki”
(English) Design submitted by Peter from the UK.
Peter says: This is “Max6Zero” after a robot from the film “The black hole”
(English) Design submitted by Heather from the USA.
Heather says: In an attempt to “change the way I think about time”, I pondered ways of telling time that could be different. In doing so, I thought about an hourglass, which led to the creation of rounded digits that could appear to fill an hourglass.
(English) Design submitted by Sam from Germany.
Sam says: I thought about splitting up the information of an analog display up into several ring segments. The result is the Cassini.
(English) Design submitted by Anders from Sweden.
Anders says: Sketching display layouts, I hit upon the idea of dividing an LED display by running wires above it. After refining the idea I had this; Cage. The display comprises 5 rows of 9 LED segments, telling time in the good old 12-5-9 format.
(English) Design submitted by Patrick from France.
Patrick says: I stumbled upon a project that I submitted in September 2010 and the second version also proposed end of September 2010, but never published because certainly it was not formatted for the blog? (I of course adapted the format, with the technical constraints of Blog)
(English) Design submitted by Clement from Singapore.
Clement says: I was thinking that watches nowadays are looking so sleek and machined. Not that this is bad, but somehow they just lack the human touch.
My design is based off a woven friendship bracelet.
(English) Design submitted by Heather form the USA.
Heather says: ZAG was inspired by Firdaus’ V watch concept. I started with a similar V, but turned it on its side, gave it an overlap, and decided that 4 separate digits in this format would look really cool on a bracelet style watch.
(English) Design submitted by Matthew from the USA.
Matthew says: I came up with this concept while I was working on another concept. I started to play around with the logo. I cropped off the top part of the logo, and placed it basically right next to the bottom half. This gave me the inspiration of creating a design that can be easily read, while the top half of the number is sliced from the bottom half of the number.
