UK-based design studio Poetic Lab has created a truly unique clock that is designed with hands that don't simply take the shape of a boring line, but rather comes with a set of triangle-shaped sculptural hands that create different shapes as they turn with the passing of time.
The minute and hour hands of the clock take the shape of incomplete triangles which, taken together, create different shapes over time. The clock can either be enjoyed with all 12 hour marker elements, some of even none at all, giving owners influence over the aesthetic appeal of the clock.
Poetic Lab sum up the appeal of this unique clock best when they describe it as portraying time " in a poetic sense, using essential elements like thin lines and circles combined in a beautiful harmony of colours, shapes and materials."
