#AN OPTICAL EFFECT REVEALING A PATTERN THAT PULSES AND VIBRATES!

OPTIDECO – MOIRÉ COLOR GETS US PULSATING

Moiré color is an optical interference that is part of the wide family of chromatic aberrations. A visual distortion creates a glitch effect which, far from spoiling or concealing a subject, tends to magnify and enhance it. Out of this moiré effect, POSITIVE COATING has created a singular esthetic.

The OptiDeCo coating, characterized by transparency, is thus enriched with a new esthetic. Light can pass through, playing with the sapphire crystal, featuring a structured checkerboard pattern to reveal kinetic optical effects.

In general terms, moiré is an image composed of plain clear lines resulting from the superimposition of two elements. It is a phenomenon of spatial interference between two grids. It was after studying this effect, that the R& D team at POSITIVE COATING decided to offer this esthetic which gives the illusion of vibrating or of a 3D pattern.

This woven effect can be applied to a sapphire crystal on the back of a watch,
for example, to make a pattern or a logo appear. The main interest is to provide visual movement which personalizes the design of the watch, rendering it unique.
POSITIVE COATING has developed this proactive approach and is delighted to share it with its customers in order to study the possibilities for application on specific projects.

THE TECHNIQUE HAS BEEN FULLY DEVELOPED.
EACH INDIVIDUAL DESIGN WILL BE THE SUBJECT OF AN INDIVIDUAL STUDY,
TO GET TOMORROW’S DESIGNS PULSATING.
