About Code Titanium Alloy Slimhorlosie-Gesig

Die Kode Titanium Alloy vertel die tyd deur 'n gevoel van die kombinasie van postmodernisme en futurisme oor te dra. Dit maak 'n metaal-agtige materiaal, intussen gebruik die verskeidenheid kolletjies en patrone as 'n metafoor nie net om die uitleg georganiseer te hou nie, maar ook om 'n dominante manier vir die futuristiese styl te wees. Die inspirasie is van die materiaal: titaniumlegering. Sulke materiaal dra die gevoel van toekoms sowel as die elegansie oor. Buitendien, as die materiaal van 'n horlosie, pas dit beide sake- en toevallige doeleindes baie goed.

Production Technology
It started with a random graphic pattern when I was trying to make a modern looking background. After a few attempts, one of the patterns caught my attention, then it became the background pattern of this watch face. Combining with the highlight effect, it shows a very good match of the look of titanium. So I decided to import it into watch face layers. After a few times of choosing the suitable font. The design direction was confirmed.
Design Challenge
The hardest part of this design is to make the overall looking elegant and "come-from-future". I want to make it look more like a piece of material from the future, meanwhile it still tells you the time in a modern looking way.
Research
Nothing much about the research. The idea just came out suddenly from some graphic patterns. At that moment, I had the feeling of making it a futuristic watch face.
Inspiration
The inspiration is from the material: titanium alloy. Such material conveys the sense of future as well as the elegance. Besides, as the material of a watch face, it suits both business and casual purpose very well.
Project Duration
The project started in January 2021 in Singapore and finished in February 2021, and is released on Facer app in February 2021.
