Design Details
- Unique Properties
- TTMM is Everything is a concept project. It is a collection of watch faces designed for the Watch PRO from CMF by Nothing. It is built on graphic minimalism and simplicity. The lack of unnecessary elements increases the legibility of information and at the same time, it is the essence of the TTMM products. This collection consists of clear and functional designs as well as eccentric ones which require some deeper sensing and deciphering effort. All projects follow cmf's visual guidelines in the form of reduced colors and a style based on rounded corners and fonts made of dots.
- Inspiration
- The reason for creating the TTMM is Everything collection is the appearance on the market a distinguish smartwatch designed by Nothing. The clean design of the CMF device encouraged me to create minimalistic designs that would complement the Watch PRO device well. The inspiration for this collection is the unique thinking contained in the award-winning designs of the faces of time created by TTMM.
- Research
- I like CMF products created by Nothing designers. They break the boring and practical design style of Apple and Google by offering products that are distinguishable. The minimalistic style of Watch PRO corresponds well with the design principles of TTMM. During the creation, I focused on inventing abstract representations of the time and taking care of the user decoding process. Once you understand the principle of time presentation, the designs are easy to read. So TTMM watch faces are little pieces of art.
- Challenge
- The creative challenge was to come up with and develop completely new ways of presenting time. It was very difficult because for 10 years I had created dozens of original solutions and I was afraid that my creativity had exhausted itself. Ultimately, we managed to create several completely new and satisfying projects.
- Realization and Technology
- All clock faces were designed in Sketch.
- Operation and Interaction
- These designs are concepts. They are not manufactured and cannot be tested or purchased.
- Project Duration and Location
- The project started in January 2024 and finished in February 2024 in Warsaw, Poland.
