The Design

About English and Numbers AW スマートウォッチフェイス

このデザインの魅力は、英字フォントと数字フォントを意図的に融合させたことから生まれています。これらのフォントスタイルを意図的に対比させることで、驚くべき調和感を創出しています。両フォントともに正方形の構造を基本としていますが、一方は緩やかに角を丸めることで、繊細な柔らかさを加えています。精巧に作り込まれたこの正方形と丸みを帯びたエッジが、デザイン全体の力強さに優しさを吹き込み、ユーザーエクスペリエンスの向上に貢献しています。

Unique Properties
What sets this design apart is the charm derived from the use of English and numerical digit fonts. The arrangement of these two fonts imparts an unforeseen sense of comfort. Both fonts have a square shape, but one of them features rounded corners. It's these square and subtly rounded elements that provide users with a touch of softness amidst the overall sturdiness.
Dimensions & Packaging
The dimension of this design is aligned with the Apple Watch Series 7 and above, which is 396 by 484 pixels in 45mm size, and 352 by 430 pixels in 41mm size.

Production Technology
The design is produced on Facer.io. It has a design tool to let designers fulfill their ideas. Once the design is finished, just publish it directly from there, and the user can sync the design from Facer.io.
Design Challenge
No challenge. Everything was running smoothly.
Research
Not much research. It is influenced by the previous design of English and Numbers on the Android watch.
Inspiration
Five years ago, the English & Numbers watchface design harnessed the elegance of English letters and numerical digits, casting a radiant glow on Android watches. Now, I aim to revive that brilliance on the Apple Watch. The fusion of English letters and digits has the potential to reveal its unexpected beauty, particularly when employing specific fonts in a well-organized manner.
Project Duration
The project started and finished in October 2023 in Singapore.
Operation Flow
The design is released on Facer.io. To download it, go to www.facer.io/u/artalex. Select the Watch platform as Apple Watch. Look for the name starting with “English and Numbers“, and click the big blue button to sync into your smartwatch (You need to have Facer app installed on your smartwatch).
