Labyrinthine Wall Clocks

The Time Maze Clock Features a Complicated, Non-Linear Shape

— May 11, 2016 — Tech
If you happen to find yourselves in the market for an exceptionally unique wall clock that offers all the functionality, reliability and solidity of a regular wall clock but is a lot more interesting to look at, you may want to look into the "Time Maze", a wonderfully peculiar yet beautiful clock developed by Polish-American designer Daniel Libeskind.

Available online for a price of $220, the Time Maze wall clock scoffs at the boring old circular clock face shape that, for some reason, has reigned supreme for centuries. Instead, this clock features a more complicated non-linear shape that the designer himself describes as being reminiscent of a "labyrinth".

Indeed this is one wall clock that you'll spend hours looking at even if you already know what time it is, simply because of the innovative design.

3. Functional Art Clocks - Clocks like the Time Maze blur the line between art and functionality, pointing towards a trend of incorporating artistic elements in timepiece designs.
Industry Implications

2. Interior Design - Alternative clock face shapes like the Time Maze clock can provide a unique focal point in interior design, offering disruptive innovation possibilities.
3. Product Design - Functional art clocks, such as the Time Maze, reflect a growing trend in product design where aesthetics and functionality are combined to create captivating products.
