Illuminating Clock Lighting

The Time Lamp by Jet Ong

The Time Lamp has a built in clock that tells the time by shining it. Similar to a sun dial in the way that it uses light and shadow to illustrate the time, the Time Lamp is a creative and clever product that will ensure no one is ever late--at least when its dark and the light is turned on.

Designed by Jet Ong, an industrial designer based in Shenzhen, China, the Time Lamp pushes the boundaries of a particular product. Instead of incorporating an ugly digital clock into its stand or base, the Time Lamp uses what it has to provide this help added detail.

Inspired by ancient ways, the Time Lamp makes time more visible.
