In the heart of Princeton New Jersey, the renovations on Witherspoon Street have become The Paul Robeson Center for the Arts. The project’s Honorary Chairman and designer Michael Graves describes it as a “landmark project for Princeton which will make an enormous contribution to the cultural life of our community.”
Witherspoon is also the namesake of his latest timepiece for PROJECTS. Like his building, The Witherspoon Watch is bold in its use of color and scale. The watch evokes the rich tones of the building’s blue and rust color bricks as well as its bold vistas of the town’s center.
Witherspoon measures 40mm in diameter (1.6″) and is made of stainless steel, complimented by a 20mm leather band (3/4″) with red color stitching and a red matching crown that turns to adjust the time. The Red Witherspoon has silver color hour and minute hands with a blue second hand.
