Mondrian Watch

Details

Add a pop of 20th-century colour to your wrist with this inspired modern watch design.

This watch design evokes an early example of the geometric mode of painting that Piet Mondrian (Dutch, 1872–1944) called Neo-Plasticism. For Mondrian, Neo-Plasticism was a universal style because its emphasis on planar relationships could be extended not only to painting, but also to design and architecture. In this work he used thick black lines to divide the canvas into 11 rectangles, some of which he painted in primary colors.
