# Design-Friendly Abstract Clocks This Clock by Marta Bakowski Tells Time in a Design-Driven Way By Kalin Ned | Published 2018-03-05 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/abstract-clock References: [designerbox](https://www.designerbox.com/en/les-box/297-designerbox-56-design-clock-design-marta-bakowski-box-home-decor-3700954800561.html) & [martabakowski](http://www.martabakowski.com/) The '360' abstract clock by Marta Bakowski quickly sold out on Designer Box. The high demand can be attributed to its [modern shape](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cast-concept) and its ability to be effortlessly integrated into any interior design. The limited-edition accessory boasts an extremely versatile shape, as it not only doubles as a [table and a wall clock](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bc17), but it can also accommodate horizontal or vertical placements when hanging. As Designer Box describes, the "subtle assembly of color in a way which only [Bakowski] knows," freely and soundly communicates with the surrounding space. The lack of numbering gives the abstract clock a [minimalist vibe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/minimalist-flip-clock), while the extended loop gives way of personalized decoration—perhaps with a small figurine as shown. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.0/10 - Popularity: 77% | Activity: 65% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Design-driven Clocks:** Opportunity for creating abstract clocks that blend seamlessly with interior design. - **Versatile Clock Designs:** Opportunity to create clocks that can be used as both table and wall clocks, with flexible placement options. - **Minimalist Clocks:** Opportunity to design abstract clocks with a minimalist aesthetic and no numbering. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Home Decor:** Opportunity for home decor brands to create design-driven clocks that enhance interior spaces. - **Furniture:** Opportunity for furniture brands to create versatile clocks that can be used as both functional and decorative pieces. - **Gifts and Collectibles:** Opportunity for gift and collectible brands to design minimalist clocks that appeal to the modern consumer's taste. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Dynamic Shadow Wall Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/textural-wall-clock.md) - [Two-Sided Wall Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/corner-clock.md) - [Intentionally Foggy Clock Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kehai-clock.md) - [Tranquil Asymmetrical Wall Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wooj-design-masuno-clock.md) - [Minimal Sculptural Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/trace-line.md) - [Surrealist-Inspired Clock Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/salvador-clock.md) - [Minimal Global Desk-Side Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/world-clock-1.md) - [Linearly Formed Wall Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/linear-clock-concept.md) - [Venn Diagram Wall Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jetlag-clock.md)
