Discover how art, fashion, and culture influence luxury watch design and iconic timepieces that exemplify horology.
Modernist architecture emerged in the early 20th century, emphasizing functionality, simplicity, and innovative materials. This movement reshaped our perception of space and influenced various fields, including watchmaking. A prime example is Villa Savoye, designed by Le Corbusier and completed in 1929. This villa showcases key modernist principles, like clean lines, open spaces, and harmony with its surroundings.
Key styles such as brutalism, minimalism, and functionalism each contribute distinct philosophies to the artistic landscape. Modernism seeks to create spaces prioritizing human experience, blending form and function seamlessly. Its principles encourage the exploration of new materials and technologies, pushing the boundaries of design.
