The undulating design of this watch represents the “sands of time”

The Line Watch concept features simple organic forms and parametric architecture, which gives the timepiece its distinct flowing forms.

Whilst imbuing the design with a sense of movement, these lines appear natural and soft. They play an important role in shaping the body of the watch, whilst helping give it a unique sense of character compared to traditional designs.

Telekes intended the design as a metaphor for the time elapsed in the creation of these forms in nature. Like undulating hills, their eb and flow are a physical manifestation of the “sands of time”.

By transforming the features of a conventional clock face, a regular yet modern ribbing that allows time to be read was achieved.

Meanwhile, a pastel colour palette reminiscent of nature in twilight offers a mild and elegant aesthetic.

A twist on the traditional watch

Whilst the watch features mostly traditional components, like a dial, a pair of hands and an injection-moulded strap, Line looks altogether new and innovative.

Because of the history and craftsmanship that charge these historial products, watches are a source of inspiration mongst designers who want to do the same, even in the midst of Apple cornering the market with its smartwatch.

Despite this, many designers still want a more traditional face like Telekes who has managed to combine expected elements with a fresh and futuristic aesthetic.
