Here are three examples of interesting minimalist clocks I came across recently. (By the way, you probably don’t want to know about the spelling mistake I originally made with the title of this post. Hahahaha! True story. Thanks goodness I caught it on time…)


Hanging Clock by Lucas Peet Design. Made from a solid piece of maple (also available in grey), with carbon-fibre hands, and a rope hanger. For an added hint of bling, the hour markings are plated in 24k gold (Lucas is the son of a goldsmith).


TIDVIS grandfather clocks by Kvarnen Studio and Forsberg Form, made from concrete or ash + concrete.


Vague Clock by Sejoon Kim. This clock takes minimalism to a whole new level – in order to read the time, the users has to touch it’s flexible face. This was the wining entry at 2010 Red Dot Concept Design.
