Mayelana ne-Nu Iwashi Yesihlakala

I-Nu iyiwashi lesihlakala elinesiqophi esigcwele amanzi. Isiqophi siphethe amanzi aqoqwe kweminye yemithombo yamanzi engcolile kakhulu emhlabeni, ahlanzwe ngokukhanya kwe-ultraviolet. Izandla ze-acrylic ezicwebile zishoniswe emanzini futhi zihlala zingabonakali cishe nhlobo. Ukuthinta ikesi lensimbi kwenza kusebenze i-diode ekhipha ukukhanya ekhanyisa izandla ukukhombisa isikhathi. Ikesi liphahlwe ngengilazi ye-sapphire eyisidilinga, futhi ibhande lenziwe ngesikhumba se-cactus. Isimo silandela ukujika kwethonsi lamazolo lihlezi eqabungeni. Umbala oluhlaza obhecile ubhekisa olwandle olungcwele.

Ukuqashelwa

Mayelana ne-Umklomelo Wesiliva we-A' Design Award

Nu Iwashi Yesihlakala iwinile uMklomelo Wesiliva we-A' Design Award, ukwaziswa okuhloniphekile ngokungajwayelekile okunikezwa imiklamo esezingeni eliphezulu, ebukekayo nethinta kakhulu. Abawinile beSiliva yimisebenzi egqamile kakhulu nedala kakhulu ebonisa ubungcweti obuphawulekayo, italente nobuhlakani babaklami babo. Nu Iwashi Yesihlakala ilindeleke ukuba ibe ngumsebenzi omuhle wesibonelo, onobungcweti obuphawulekayo nezinto ezintsha ezijulile. Lo mklamo owinile uMklomelo Wesiliva we-A' Design Award uyinto entsha ebonakala kakhulu nethakazelisayo esiza futhi isunduza imingcele yobuciko, isayensi, ukuklama nobuchwepheshe. Nu Iwashi Yesihlakala iyinto enomhawu omkhulu kuyo evusa izifiso, ilethe imizwa emihle futhi ivuse ukumangala nokuxakeka.

Izici Ezihlukile: The watch dial is filled with water collected from the world's dirtiest water sources.
Within the water-filled dial are the watch's clear acrylic hands (powered by a Swiss Quartz Movement). They stay almost invisible in the water until you touch the watch metal body (which acts as a touch-sensitive switch), then they come to life by directing a beam of light (from an LED) through them. They glow within the murky water to show the time.
Izilinganiso Nokupakisha: Case diameter 38mm, thickness 12mm, strap width 20mm.
Amathegi: watch, minimal, timepiece, design, unconventional, water, environment,
Ubuchwepheshe Bokukhiqiza: Domed sapphire glass with an anti-reflective coating on both sides will top the watch 316L High-quality steel case. The strap will be made of all-natural, cruelty-free cactus leather with a magnetic clasp. The polluted water inside the dial will be sterilized using UV. Swiss Quartz Movement.
Inselele Yokudweba: The biggest challenge for us was to design a conversation piece that would elegantly convey our message. We want to talk about water pollution without actually talking about it.
Ucwaningo: We started with a simple question: How can we attract people's attention to a subject matter that they prefer to ignore? We did some research and talked to few experts in the fields of psychology and human behaviour. We found out that the best way to gain someone's attention is to arouse their curiosity. People tend to remember the answers better if they are the ones asking the questions. We designed Nu to be a conversation piece, an object to intrigue.
Ugqozi: Nu was born out of our concern for the environment; we aimed to attract people's attention to water pollution and the fact that time is running out for all of us to do something about it.
The morning dew inspired Nu's design. Like a water droplet on top of a leaf, the watch sits on top of the strap; the body shape follows the droplet's contour, and the pristine ocean inspired the blue colour.
Ubude Bephrojekthi: The project started in December 2020 in Toronto and finished in February 2021 in Krakow.
Ukuhamba Kokusebenza: The watch's hands are made from clear acrylic, and they are submerged in water; the refractive index of clear acrylic is close to that of water, making the hands look almost invisible. To see the time, the user touches the watch metal body. The body acts as a touch-sensitive switch for the LED, located at the base of both watch hands; it will light up, illuminating the hands.
