Behind the Design

Unique Properties: The TTMM is a collection of 21 original clock faces dedicated for Fitbit Versa and Fitbit Ionic smartwatches. Thanks to smartphone connection clock face not only shows time but also date, week day, heart rate, steps, activity time, distance, calories, floors, temperature in your city and battery status. TTMM clock faces have complications settings just with a simple tap on screen. This makes them very easy to customize color, design preset and complications to user preferences.
Dimensions & Packaging: Clock faces code for Fitbit are from 7Kb to 900Kb
Tags: clock faces, time, clock, minimal, Fitbit Ionic, Fitbit Versa
Production Technology: All clock faces were designed in Adobe Illustrator. All bitmaps were edited in Adobe Photoshop. Programming was made with Fitbit sdk in Fitbit Studio software.
Design Challenge: The main challenge was to use fonts in proper weight and scale to be readable and easy to tap to set the complications like color presets or specific informations. To save the space for graphic icons or descriptions I decided to use my own symbols legend made from specyfic letters e.g.
% = battery
. = steps
: = heart rate
* = calories
+ = floors
To some models I add some useful features like torch or stopwatch and timer. Those extra functions and tapping interface (compare to buttons settings in Fitbit app) makes TTMM clock faces easy and fast to operate and save user a lot of time.
Research: I made my own clock faces market observation and analyze and was discovered that there was so little original thinking and design. Mainstream projects are imitations of mechanical clocks and 80' quartz lcd screens. The reason of that situation is that clock faces were made by enthusiasts programmers. That is why I experimented a lot and inventing new design of the 21 century era finding balance between readable design and inventing new form of meaning the time.
Inspiration: The inspiration for TTMM collection comes form movies like: 2001 Space Odyssey, Blade Runner and Twin Peaks. Great influence for me was Tokyo Flash Japan portal, Nooka brand and TTMM for Pebble collection.
Project Duration: The project started in December 2017 and finished in February 2018 in Warsaw in Poland. Programer works in France.
Operation Flow: TTMM clock faces can be uploaded to Fitbit Ionic or Versa through TTMM app for Android and iOS. In TTMM app you can view design, read description, buy and upload clock faces and prepare your favorite models list. After upload user can set up complications with just a simple tap on screen such as: date, heart rate, steps, activity time, distance, calories, floors, temperature, weather conditions and battery status. This user friendly interface makes the customization of your clock face productive and smooth.
