About Tick Tock Horlosiegallery

Die ontwerp van Tick Tock Watch Gallery geleë in Yazd, Iran, in 'n klein ruimte met die klem op 'n eenvoudige, laekoste en moderne visuele effek, was 'n besondere ervaring. Hierdie gallery is die verteller van 'n speletjie wat in tyd tot stilstand gekom het. Die primêre konsep is geïnspireer deur die Tetris-speletjie. Vorms wat bo-op mekaar geplaas word, skep ewekansige vorms. Anders as die speletjie, word bokse met dieselfde dimensies, maar met 'n verandering in hul rigtings, hier saamgestel, en dit kan hul funksie verander: Soos die verandering van die horlosie se wysers gedurende die dag, wat lei tot 'n verandering in die funksie van gebruikers.

Behind the Design

Unique Properties: The design of this gallery with emphasis on a simple but different display, low cost, and modern visual effect, was a special experience. This project is based on providing an experience of being in an entertainment place. In other words, this gallery is the narrator of a game ceased in time. That is to say, in a formal and playful look, we put the user in a playground where the game has already started and is supposed to be continued by the user without realizing it.
Dimensions & Packaging: Width 3200 mm x Depth 2800 mm x Height 2400 mm

Production Technology: This gallery is located in Yazd. An area where there are many clays block-making factories. Blocks which are sometimes square and have the same dimensions. This made us to choose clay blocks due to their abundance, reasonable price, and modularity. However, such material with neutral color needs an inverse complement. Choosing a native plant leads to a good feeling.
Design Challenge: In the modern world, inhabitants of Yazd are obsessed with ups and downs. Our intention was to provide a space to separate people from these bustles. With a close look at the composition of Yazd urban plan, we can witness a formal approach to its context. This, however, has become less prominent, and perhaps this neglect has caused the indifference among people. Thus, staying away from city distractions is possible by being in an environment derived from the traditional architecture of Yazd.
Research: During this project, we tried our best to free the citizens from the hustle and bustle of city life by creating a formalistic space derived from the architecture of Yazd. This prompted us to take a closer look at the composition of the city and create a modular with a simple collage of its urban plan that reminds us of the traditional houses with courtyards. Modules that are the same size and are placed next to each other. Thus, while entering this space, the user feels like a plan of Yazd in the modern world with a taste of the past.
Inspiration: The primary concept of this project has been inspired by the Tetris game. Shapes that are placed on top of each other arbitrarily or sometimes randomly create a random shape. However, unlike the Tetris game, where different shapes are put together, in this gallery, square boxes with the same dimensions, but a change in their directions (rotation), are put together, and that can change the function of each box.
Project Duration: Tick-Tock gallery is a conceptual (futuristic design) located in Yazd, a historical city in the center of Iran.
Operation Flow: This gallery is the narrator of a game ceased in time. In fact, in the project square boxes with the same dimensions, but a change in their directions are put together, and the user can change the function of each box. For example, one box is a place for keeping plants, another is a place for exhibiting watches, and other boxes have other functions according to the design of the user.
