24 Of The Most Creative Watches Ever

The advent of the now nearly ubiquitous smartphone is slowly making watches and clocks obsolete, which is a crying shame because these both have a long and rich legacy of beautiful decoration and artistic craftsmanship. These 24 watches, whether homages to the grand-master clock makers of old or innovative new designs for the modern era, seek to keep our love of watches and timepieces alive.

One of the most enchanting things about watch design, especially when talking about mechanical watches, is the scale at which everything happens. Not only are these designs absolutely beautiful, they are all also constrained to a tiny disk strapped to your wrist. And yet, despite this limitation, there are round tables surrounded by knights, whirling planets, beautiful birds and poetic fairy-tales. Many of the world’s greatest watchmakers also no longer limit themselves to simply documenting a 24-hour day, either. Weeks, months, and the time in other cities around the world can all be monitored, and even the moon’s phases and the movement of celestial bodies.

On the other hand, digital watches have opened up a new world of opportunities for watchmakers that just weren’t available before. Sleek modern designs, lights, and the lack of moving parts are just a few of the basic hallmarks of the digital watches on this list. The lack of moving parts especially allows digital watchmakers to move in new directions – their faces can display information in totally new ways, and they can be made flexible or even see-through.

  • ‘The Pilar’ by Ishmael Randall Weeks consists of four concrete columns that have books embedded in them.

Share with someone who would love these pillars of wisdom!

  • It
  • The term “living in a bubble” may be associated with being disconnected from the harsh realities of the world, but in this case, it’s actually a good thing!

The Living O’Pod is an experimental pod house that promotes a better lifestyle through the integration of nature into the home’s design. Designed for two people to comfortably stay in, the pod is shaped like a transparent bubble that sits amongst the wilderness, with a design so minimal, it puts its surroundings front and center.

The two-story pod comes with a steel frame as its main structure, and glass panels all around, almost like a glass igloo. While this undeniably does a number on resident privacy, its remote location itself gives you the solitude you need to live with absolute transparency. The obvious benefit? Incredible lighting, stellar views, and probably the best sunrises and sunsets you could enjoy within the comforts of your bed!

Designer: @uniodesignstudio [IG]
  • Called Island, this double-decker driverless tram has been designed especially for the city of Hong Kong, for the post-pandemic age. It won the 2020 GIDA Design Award.

The exteriors have been influenced by the buildings with curved curtain walls found in Hong Kong. Huge circular benches mark the interior of the tram, which allows passengers to sit facing outwards. The interiors feature charcoal gray walls, cushioned seats, wooden floors and trims with natural finish.

Designer: @pontidesignstudiohk [IG]
  • The “Revolver” wall-mounted desk by Teixeira Design Studio features a corner drawer, which opens like a matryoshka in order to create a wider working area. The fun part is that you can play around with the 3 drawers through a swiveling and spinning system (hence the name) and overlaying elements.

Designer: @joaoteixeira_designstudio [IG]
  • Odessa-based architecture and interior design firm K&B Partners designed the ‘Shell House’. Led by Kovtun Yuri and Burakov Egor, the firm created this structure to function as a modern family recreation center, located near the sea in Koblevo, Mykolaiv region, Ukraine. The intriguing structure draws its inspiration from mussels – a common mollusk found in the local area.

The mussel-shaped home is primarily built from wood – including the structure, and the outer decorative shell. Although situated on a single site, it serves as a home for multiple families. It is targeted toward small families of two people, or larger families of four or more people. If you look closely at the intriguing shape of the structure, you’ll notice that it mimics the shell of a bivalve mollusk specifically. Two massive shells are connected via a hinge, giving the modern recreation center a completely innovative and unique exterior.

Multiple Shell Houses are placed next to each other to create homes for different families. We, presume, each family will get their own living unit to reside in. A view from the top showcases mussel-inspired cottages that are almost smushed together – creating not only an interesting visual but architectural structures that somehow perfectly merge with their surroundings.

Designer: @kovtun.burakov.arch [IG]
  • Persian interior with a slight Baroque touch by @neilleach14 [IG]
  • Gaia Tower, designed by @marianacabugueira [IG], is a virtual high rise project inspired by the Greek goddess of the Earth. The Tower completes the third Island Chain part of the Trinity Islands, a genesis project part of the city of Wiami, a Web3 virtual city that Wilder World is currently building.

All three islands are fully public and made for Community Building, they are projected as a refuge for virtual Peace and Serenity. The gameplay and Web3 development that is in progress aim for the High-Fidelity experience of space through hyper-realistic space-rendering and space navigation.
