Moonwatch
Designed by: The Emotion Lab
Website: http://www.theemotionlab.com/

"It's a new concept of time based on nature which invites people to reflect upon and gain a closer understanding of their mood and daily life on earth." The Emotion Lab

The Moonwatch also shows the time with a push of a button which switches between the two interfaces, time and moon phase. During the day the time is indicated with a black background and during the night the interface changes to white in order to improve visibility. (via)

Lovely isn’t it? :D

design // Videogame Minimalism // by infinitecontinues

*Videogame Minimalism*

This is an exploration of how a few key shapes from well-loved characters are instantly recognisable even when reduced to these simple forms.

I’ve been playing games since I was very small, around about the age of 7 or 8. I started by playing some games on my sister’s Commodore 64, which later became mine. I was then bought a NES for Christmas one year, and my love affair with Nintendo started. Since then, I’ve just become more and more immersed in the industry.

In June 2009, I finally started working in videogames by becoming an Artist at Sony Computer Entertainment Europe, or SCEE for short. This blog is my own personal take on videogaming, whatever form that may take.
