I love product you can customize the appearance of without having to build it all from scratch.
The Meaning of Time clock concept by Bomi Kim is a great example. The mechanics of a functional clock are all there, so all you need to do is add the hour and minute hands. The possibilities are endless! You can use anything that fits through the holes. From sticks and pencils, to candy canes and chop sticks, it's up to you to define the meaning of time.
I think it's a great idea; you can customize it to match your decor, and easily update it by using different clock hands.
