Concept Watch: BREIL Ori

'Ori' means folding, derived from origami. the watch accentuates the usage of stainless steel through folding technique to achieve perfection. The watch's face is formed by tessellation of folded planes that continues into the strap, therefore creating a coherent visual harmony. This achieves an effect as if the watch is made of a single sheet of stainless steel, forming a complete and seamless timepiece. Tthe main idea reflects a common folding technique which usually used on paper, onto stainless steel brings out the irony character of material usage. This idea focuses on stainless steel capability to achieve distinctive folding edges that displays precision in terms of technology, as well as brings out the character of the wearer to be firm and confident. On the watch’s face, the tessellations which are created parametrically impose strong sense of accuracy in displaying time through sharp directional edges and corners. The strap continues on the folding technique, from static tessellation (watch’s face) to dynamic tessellation on the strap (as the strap’s common nature to flex). Due to the unique and continuous tessellations, the watch displays different impression of reflections under different lighting conditions.
