Designer, Artist, and Horologist John Beck McConnico founded Bespoke Watch Projects five years ago, a California-based watch brand that has become known for producing distinctive mechanical timepieces and made-to-order watches—while merging vintage-inspired details with clean modern design.

John’s latest model is called the 72 FLYBACK Chronograph, a robust watch available in 6 unique configurations. He recently launched a Kickstarter campaign for the edition and has assembled a limited number of “early bird” models to be shipped in January.

A big thank you to Fair UI for sponsoring my blog and RSS feed this week.

How might UI design help counteract racial and gender-based discrimination in online platforms? Are there UI patterns that could make a difference in this area? If so, what are they and how should they be used?

We don’t have the answers to any of these questions yet, but we are trying to find out.

Fair UI is a new Samhæng research project to look into these topics. The objective of Fair UI is to create evidence-based resources for UI professionals aiming to deal with these issues. This survey is our first step in that direction. It aims to get an overview of some of the issues that designers are currently facing and an idea of how we can begin to build better support materials.

Take the 10 minute survey for a chance to win a design book.
