Mado
Mado 窓, the Japanese word for “window,” is a fitting name for this timepiece designed with architect Michael Graves that represents the idea of seeing something that was previously unseeable. Though its color scheme of silver and black is reminiscent of archetypical watches, Mado’s composition—a literal square peg in a round hole—communicates a sense of individuality yearning to be expressed.

About the Creator
Michael Graves
Few are credited with spearheading a single design movement; Michael Graves, well known throughout the world for design excellence, led three. In the 1980s, Michael redirected the architectural conversation away from abstract modernism toward a more humanistic approach to architecture and urban planning, that among other things, brought color and art back into the experience of architecture.
In the 1990s, his partnership with Target defined America's expectation that great design should be available to everyone. And design became a corporate strategy. Over his past decade, Michael became a passionate advocate for the disabled and used the power of design to improve healthcare experiences for patients, families and clinicians.
Michael Graves transformed the role of the architect in society and left the world a better place than he found it. Michael Graves received prestigious awards including the AlA Gold Medal, the National Medal of Arts from President Clinton, The Richard H. Driehaus Prize, and the Topaz Medallion for Excellence in Architectural Education.
