World Cup 2022: A Colourful Celebration on Your Wrist

Designing Apple Watch Faces Inspired by National Flags

When it comes to the FIFA World Cup 2022, the excitement is not limited to the stadiums. Designer Alex Pan Yong has created a stunning collection of Apple Watch faces that capture the spirit of the tournament. By drawing inspiration from the vibrant colours of the participating nations' flags, these watch faces offer a unique and meaningful way for fans to show their support.

Each country has its own unique colour scheme, and Alex Pan Yong has expertly incorporated these colours into the designs. The central focus of each watch face is a painting of the nation's flag, occupying the majority of the space and creating a bold and impactful visual. Against a sleek black background, the colours of the flag stand out even more, providing a striking contrast that ensures the design is easily readable at a glance.

One of the strengths of these watch faces is their layout. By placing the flag at the center, there is ample space to display the time and other relevant information without detracting from the main focal point. This layout also allows for the inclusion of a heart rate indicator, symbolizing the passion and dedication of the fans. It's a visually engaging and meaningful design that resonates with supporters of the team.

The realization of these designs is made possible through Facer.io, a design tool that allows designers to bring their ideas to life. Once the design is finished, it can be published directly from Facer.io, and users can easily sync the watch face to their smartwatch.

These watch faces are designed specifically for the Apple Watch Series 7 and above, with dimensions of 396 by 484 pixels for the 45mm size and 352 by 430 pixels for the 41mm size. They are compatible with the Facer app, which can be downloaded to your smartwatch.

The World Cup 2022 watch face collection was designed by Alex Pan Yong in Singapore, with the project starting in October 2022 and finishing in November 2022. The inspiration for these designs came from the colours of the national flags, creating an immediate connection and sense of pride for fans. The design process was smooth and seamless, with no major challenges encountered.

These watch faces have already received recognition for their outstanding design. They were awarded the Bronze A' Design Award in the Interface, Interaction, and User Experience Design category in 2023. This prestigious award celebrates designs that exhibit strong technical and creative skills, contributing to improvements in quality of life.

With the World Cup 2022 watch face collection, you can wear your support on your wrist and celebrate the tournament in style. Show your love for the game and your favorite team with these colourful and elegant designs that capture the essence of the FIFA World Cup.
