Issey Miyake | Trapezoid AL
Japanese fashion designer Issey Miyake, known for his technology-driven clothing designs and fragrances, presents to us his new line of watches. Entitled ‘Trapezoid Al’, the 82 gram timepieces are the result of a collaboration between Miyake and industrial designer Naoto Fukasawa. When asked about the concept of the watches, Fukasawa explains:
“As the name “TRAPEZOID” suggests, I first had the image of a trapezoid form in rotation. So, the bezel is cut steeply, and a tachymeter is provided on it. Numbers are proportioned like speed limits painted on a road surface – stretched in height to be readable normally when viewed from the front, despite their steep angles around the circumference.”
