Process
- > 1. DISCOVER Concept / > 2. DEFINE Design / > 3. ITERATE Prototyping / > 4. DEVELOP Manufacturing
1. Concept
The principle is simple: two superposed etched metal discs rotate on each tother and create changing patterns when time goes by.
2. Design
Using graphic design softwares, we designed the dial and hands to be superposed.
We designed and assembled all the components on a 3D software.
3. Prototyping
Using additive manufacturing, we created iterations of the case, buckle and hands and test / improve them to get to the final design.
4. Development
We created the final drawings and files to be send to the manufacturers, sourced the final materials and followed up in all stages of the production until receiving the final products.
