- Production Technology
- The actual product is currently in the WatchMaker version. It can be downloaded from the WatchMaker app and synced into your smartwatch (the WatchMaker app is needed on your watch).
- Design Challenge
- One must devise a strategy to arrange the information indicators in a manner that eliminates superfluous elements and ensures the dial is neat and accurate. In doing so, it is important to utilize the dots as a primary element to evoke a sense of cyberpunk.
- Research
- I want it to be in a cyberpunk style, a sense of future, while it still has a very high readability. So I decided to make the time much more dominant, and added visual variation on the font. The upper half of the font is in solid stroke while the lower half fades into the pattern of dots. It gives a kind of digital yet also cyberpunk feeling. Below the time text, it’s the day-in-week indicator which uses only the first letter of the day, e.g, “M” for Monday. Besides, this indicator itself plays the role of divider. Its layout forms the feeling of a line, helping to cut the whole watch face into two areas, the time & date area and the information area. When the day-in-week indicator plays the role of both info provider and space divider, there is no need for any more extra elements to be there to occupy extra space. In such layout, the preciseness of the dial is guaranteed, and the user can easily be focused on what really need.
- Inspiration
- I aim to create a cyberpunk-style watch design that breaks away from the conventional approach of cramming all sorts of information onto the watch face. Unlike most cyberpunk designs, which tend to feature tiny, unreadable text and numbers, I want to create a design that prioritizes readability and clarity. Instead of packing the design with an excessive amount of information, I intend to create a clean and easy-to-read layout that incorporates elements of the cyberpunk style.
- Project Duration
