Project Overview
A conceptual wall-mounted clock that tells time through light instead of hands.
Two projected beams indicate hours and minutes, creating a quiet and intuitive reading of time in space.
The Challenge
* Rethink time display without traditional hands or digits
* Maintain clarity using only two beams of light
* Integrate light, structure, and power within a compact form
* Balance poetic expression with functional readability
My Role & Contribution
* Led concept development and product direction
* Defined form, proportion, and interaction logic
* Designed light behavior: hour (thicker beam) / minute (finer beam)
* Developed 3D design, CMF, and product detailing
Design Approach
A light-as-interface approach, where time is experienced through ambient projection rather than physical indicators.
The form is reduced to a pure circular volume, allowing material and light to define the product.
Development
* Explored beam angle, thickness, and intensity for readability
* Designed internal structure for light channels and battery integration
* Optimized compact form for adhesive wall mounting
* Refined brushed stainless steel finish for a calm, minimal presence
Outcome
A conceptual gadget product that redefines time perception through light compact, rechargeable, and designed to seamlessly integrate into interior spaces.
