Standard designs - which seem as though they would be easy to create
so long as they conformed to the rules - first come into being with
their creators paying meticulous care to the finest details; these
designs strongly attract people.
It's its very commonplace nature that gives a shape value.
The universality and conviction that comes from this; that's the "standard" this project visualizes.
Fascination
captures people's imaginations and affords them the joy that
comes with wearing something good; for designers, it means
discovering for themselves the joy in the art of creation,
and in doing so losing themselves in the creative process.
Where does time come from, and what
kind of watch displays this time? We created various designs
for watches which give an image to a “radio wave.”
We have tried to
show the value of “refinement” that is significant
for SEIKO by a design with a delicate idea which is unique
to a watch.
We created new
watches through activities that have tried to rediscover “everyday
ordinary phenomena” that we may not have noticed experiencing.
*The
SEIKO power design project is purely for design study, and is not
on the assumption of actual production.
