(English) Design submitted by Sarah from the UK.
Sarah says: I’m always torn between my geeky scientist side that loves sci fi and my awe of nature. A funky snowflake pattern with a sci fi feel to it seemed like a logical and interesting idea! Plus geometric patterns and blue lights appeal to me! Read the rest of this entry »

The hard or the easy way? The easy mode a simple digital mode, but the hard mode is very cryptic when you don’t know the solution. You can change the mode of the time telling method on this watch. The upper two digits indicates the hours and the lower two digits is the minutes. Read the rest of this entry »

The following LED Binary sequential Watch is inspired by the condition synaesthesia: people who have this sensor condition see sound especially music notes as colour. Furthermore this is also how scientists in the film Close Encounters of the Third Kind communicate with a race of alien that speak a musical / tonal use different colour to represent different musical notes / words etc. Read the rest of this entry »

(English) Design submitted by Sam F from the USA.
Sam says: A good timepiece should be stunning and attention-grabbing without being confusing. I was drawn to a concept that grouped lights by location, and realized that sorting the LEDs by color the design would be even more abstract and interesting, and stay simple to read.

The Monolith concept started with sketching for minimalistic numbers. I made these slim blocks with different lengths that form numbers in a new way. They look a bit like a barcode or some skyscraper lights. There are no horizontal elements but these numbers work just fine. Read the rest of this entry »

(English) Design submitted by Sam from Germany.
Sam says: SPECTRUM is a stylish fun watch with a scientific background. It started as binary idea. 1 is an activated LED and 0 is a deactivated LED. Or you can say, one is white and 0 is black. I had the basic shades for the basic numbers and thought it would be cool to give all the other numbers parts of the color spectrum. The cool thing is, the spectrum can be divided into 8 distinguishable colors! I’m using four long bars to tell the time. This is inspired by emission spectra of elements that get passed by light (Thank you, my astronomy teacher). Read the rest of this entry »
