    Schofield Details ‘Unusual Lights’ and Design Philosophy at Sussex University

    Schofield Watch Company is reflecting on recent events and the philosophy behind their latest creations, including the Enthusiastic reception for the Skeptiko watch at the BWD event. The brand also announced a new series of "Unusual Lights," which are now available for purchase as unique pieces. These lights feature a special "huff-crystal" that reveals a hidden SWC Fresnel design when breathed upon, a detail that was highlighed by the team during recent showings. The newsletter also dives deep into design philosophy, sharing insights from a lecture given by Giles, who is an Assistant Professor of Product Design at the University of Sussex. These reflections emphasize that design is a tool for shaping culture and evolution, advocating for durability, pragmatism, and ethical production over short-term profit or superficiality. Students' summaries of the lecture underscores the responsibility of designers to create objects that solve real problems without negatively impacting the planet. In addition to design theory and horology, Schofield noted a change in their social media management, with the Instagram account being refreshed under new direction. The brand also highlighted several accessory items available in their shop, including the Small Wall Clock II, a "6 Pips" cap, and the "Your Turn" keyring. Each product continues the brand's commitment to thoughtful, Sussex-inspired design.
