Design submitted by Heather from the USA.
Heather says: I started to think about a cool way to show numbers by making use of the negative space. So I tilted the digits, and zoomed in, cutting off the upper left and bottom right corner of each digit, which surprisingly does not affect the ability to identify them.

Design submitted by Sam from Germany.
Sam says: I was in the mood for a v-shaped display and sketched a lot for a watch that can carry one. It wasn’t easy to decide for a variant. In the end I kept it clean and simple.

Design submitted by Heather from the USA.
Heather says: The last TF Blog Progress Report expressed interest in new technologies, such as EL sheet, which is somewhere between LCD and LED. At first, I just wanted to make a cool looking unisex design with vertically stretched always on glowing numbers. When I designed the numbers, they appeared to me like they were being squeezed together from the sides, like they were in a vise. So I named the concept VISE. Then I thought about what a vise actually does, and I realized that this concept can go further. I can solve the problem of watches being too big/clunky for ladies.

Design submitted by Peter from the UK.
Peter says: This is “Trylon LCD” an LCD version of the original Trylon concept.
Like the original design this watch is inspired by the image of the “flux capacitor” from the time traveling Delorean from the “back to the future” movies combined with a hint of Cylon. The name “Trylon” came from the combination of the “Y” shape face and Cylon like display.

Design submitted by Sam from Germany.
Sam says: This is a project, I couldn’t properly sketch for on paper. I imagined a pattern that consists of LCD lines with different thicknesses. I wanted to create a cascaded gradient from dark to bright (or vice versa) that contains the time telling numbers. The lines of the backgrounds and the adjacent numbers should be interlocking and create a black and white mesh.

Design submitted by Heather from the USA.
Heather says: I was actually inspired when I tried to read a watch display concept by Lloyd from Australia. I was reading it incorrectly at first, looking for digits that weren’t there to find. But then I thought, that would work. So I developed this LED concept with animation that is basically an LED version of Kisai Stencil. Because the only LEDs necessary create a somewhat wave-like layout, I decided to give it a wave-like animation and entitle it WAVE. The animation can be set to automatically turn on at various intervals.
