The Design

About Code Titanium Alloy Smartwatch Facies

Codex Titanium Alloy tempus narrat inferens affectum coniunctionis postmodernismi et futurismi. Materiam metallicam spectans reddit, interim varietate punctis et exemplaribus utitur metaphorice non solum ut propositum constitutum servet, sed etiam ut modus futuristici stili dominatur. Inspiratio ex materia: Titanium offensionis. Quae quidem materia sensum aeque ac elegantiam importat. Praeterea, sicut materia speculatoriae faciei, et negotiorum et fortuito consilio optime convenit.

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.
Operation Flow
The design is already released on Facer app. Go to Facer app or website (https://www.facer.io/u/artalex), search "Artalex", and look for the name "Code . Titanium". Click the "send to watch" button to sync the design into your smartwatch. You need the Facer app installed on your smartwatch.
