Saturn Watch : Simple and Elegant Watch by Marko Vuckovic
Inspired by the planet Saturn, the second largest planet after Jupiter, Marko Vuckovic, an industrial designer, has come up with Saturn watch. Instead of typical boring traditional watch with 3 needles to represent second, minute, and hour hand, this time, the watch doesn’t need any needle to tell the time. This watch has been crafted in simple yet elegant manner. Like any other timepiece, this watch has 12 digits placed on it. The base is encased with two disks with perforated holes crafted on them. These disks turn around in a clockwise manner in which the holes on the disk plates will inform you about the time of the day.

Unlike traditional analog watch, Saturn watch displays only the digits to represent the time while the rests remain concealed under the disk.

Stylish Givi Motorcycle Top Box Features RFID Key Lock System
Givi motorcycle top box was designed by these industrial designers during their exchange period at Istituto Europeo di Design. This top box project is intended to be used on motorcycles and has to be realistic enough to be released in the market by the year of 2017.
At first, we came up with many ideas that would make this an ambitious target, but during the process we moved toward actual reasonable scenarios and implementing only those features which were likely be available at that time. We had a keen interest to design a product that is sustainable, using biodegradable plastics and making the manufacturing process and recycling process as easy as possible and one of the top box’s main feature and theme is configurability and customizability.
We applied these themes to Givi Motorcycle Top Box both internally and externally, thus the interior has an easy to use compartmentalization feature using elastic rubber bands, while the exterior has customizable rings that can match any motorbike. We decided to use a new lock system with an RFID key to simplify the access to two separate compartments. These compartments have separate purposes, a smaller for easy access for personal things that are essential and a bigger one that has more space. The aggressive angle of the lid was designed to fit with modern and future motorbike trends where the rear end of the bike is also angled, not flat.

UP-Series for Urban City People
UP is a product line that includes both furnishing and lighting elements for urban environments aiming to connect different people, markets and cultures. This design is a result of a young and inspiring team who think differently in principle and features from a bicycle stand and bollard to a bench. This formal design idea is carried throughout the entire product line and will enable the user to plan and produce more aesthetically rational cityscape. This product was developed in order to make our future cities more pleasant, attractive, and livable, and make the people happier than ever.
Just because of the efficient functionality of this product line, it has received various positive feedbacks from many important personnel. The starting point of designing this useful product collection was the simple and rounded bollard. Different functions were adjoined by making various incisions and the main outline was converted into a wide-ranging and versatile range of products. In order to get the most from the product line, placing and organizing them accordingly is very much important. Implementing these artifacts will surely bring a significant difference in the appearance of our current city life which will be able to change the entire lifestyle of the urban city people.
