Best Analog Clock Yet

This has to be the most brilliant analog clock concept I’ve seen yet. This clock, aptly called ‘The Meaning of Time’ by designer Bomi Kim, is an ultra simple torpedo shaped contraption with two holes, labeled ‘Hour’ and ‘Minute’. Stick the sharp end into your wall to hang the clock, then insert anything into the holes to represent the hour and minute clock!!!

I found this clock whilst browsing Yankodesign.com. Here are some examples of what you can insert into the holes to make clock hands. Unfortunately, no word on retail price or availability. Bomi Kim’s site is no help either as it’s currently under construction.

I personally think the pencil idea looks classy yet playful. Imagine using glow sticks in place of pencils when throwing one of your dinner parties. That sure would wow your guests and get them talking about it. However, I’m skeptical about how well the clock will hold ‘anything’ really because the holes are fixed size so you’ve got to find ‘hands’ that are exactly the same size as the holes to fit them in nicely into ‘The Meaning of Time’.

You could also get creative by customising the background of the clock to create a contemporary effect like this

The picture above is the Karlsson silver cube wall. FYI- Karlsson and Nextime mass produce contemporary analog clocks, many of which would look great in your modern home. You can find these clocks at Molecule in the Home Precinct at Pavilion KL (level 5). Clocks range from RM248 to RM655.

Digressing from Bomi Kim’s ‘The Meaning of Time’ analog clock, this is my pick of Karlsson clocks from Molecule- the Mixed Numbers Clock. This clock currently retails at RM655. If not for my practical side warning me of the effort required to clean the dust off the crevices of the clock, I would’ve purchased it in a jiffy.
