Design submitted by Sam from Gemany.
Sam says: t³ stands for tactile triangle time. The t³ is also a hint for the third dimension that this watch concept takes advantage of. I like watches and concepts with a tactile interface and really liked to make my own.

Design submitted by Peter from the UK.
Peter says: I was being dragged around the shops by my better half over the xmas period and saw some very nice modern xmas tree globes which were made from a single strip of metal formed into a sphere, they looked like a peeled orange for want of a better description. Read the rest of this entry »

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 Valentin from the USA.
Valentin says: I came up with this idea from my favourite type of watches, so i decided to design this one. The design has translucent dials that light up and rotate to the specific time. The time is read from top to bottom under the arrow on the case of the watch.

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 Lloyd from Australia.
Lloyd says: “Confusion” is a modern-looking LCD concept watch that displays the time in a simple but puzzling way using jumbled up numbers. The idea occurred to me over a year ago after seeing Heather and Sam’s design “Out of Order”.

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.

Design submitted by Peter from the UK.
Peter says: This design was inspired by a computer game logo from a game I played recently. As soon as I saw the logo I thought it would make a great watch face. “Hexecule” was the result.

Design submitted by Lloyd from Australia.
Lloyd says: This LCD concept watch displays the time and date using an enigmatic-looking arrangement of shapes made up of squares. That’s why it’s called “Tessera”, after the small square tiles used to make mosaics.
