clocks



The QLOCKTWO, by the German design firm Biegert & Funk.
Spells out time in five minute increments. Four dots in the corners let you know precisely which minute it is. The clock retails in Europe for about.






Orbit by Buro Vormkrijgers.
With its original elliptical hands this clock changes shape like a satellite changes orbit. Every minute of every hour orbit creates a new shape on your wall.






rnd_time Infinite Wall Clock by Progetti Srl.
The most unusual feature of this clock lies in its entirely random application to the wall, hence the name “rnd_time”, where “rnd” is used to indicate the random factor. Each cube is made in nylon plastic, one cube for each hour, another to house the clock hands and battery.

Continue Time by Sander Mulder.
On this Continue Time clock, two out of the three pointers rotate around another pointer, instead of the central point on the clock face, as with traditional clocks. The resulting kinetic artwork, and fully functional clock, is continuously changing its shape during a full rotation of twelve hours. From centre, first hand is hour, second hand is minutes and last is seconds.
