The Lumino watch captures the ever-changing sky

Collaboration: HEEE and Eundam Hwang
2023-10-3153

The Lumino Watch, which offers the experience of focusing on the different colors of the sky as time passes, is designed with two discs, the hour and minute hands, that overlap and separate from each other to represent changing time. As the discs rotate, they change both color and shape, giving the space a new look every hour. Rather than showing the exact time, it reminds us of the importance of having a relaxed mind, like the sky that changes without being bound by time. To realize the colors, Hanji (traditional Korean paper) color chips were made and printed using a water transfer technique to reduce the color difference between the products caused by the hand coloring method, and to simplify the process and increase productivity. In addition, three color options are available so that users can choose according to the wall environment.

 

Maker HEEE

 

"We have been making products based on one tone, but this collaboration allowed us to try new things by applying unique colors in various color combinations that designers use. We were also able to change our handmade work method to a mass printing method in line with the product production process.”

 

Designer Eundam Hwang

 

"I studied watch movements and parts and tried to apply them to the design. I also expanded my work by studying various printing methods such as water transfer, UV printing, and transfer printing to facilitate the production of various colors that were previously implemented directly on Hanji."
