The 'Playtime' hybrid clock audio system has been designed with a distinct focus on an oversized aesthetic to create a piece of equipment that is both ornate and functional. Designed by Park Chanju, the 'Playtime' unit incorporates an analog clock along with a Bluetooth audio player, which makes it a piece of equipment that is nearly indiscernible as a traditional speaker. This acknowledges the shift with technology to favor designs that let it be incorporated into a space without having the traditional aesthetics of sounds systems, computers and the like.
The 'Playtime' hybrid clock audio system also displays the song playback progress on the clock face for a more intriguing interface design that is more discreet than speakers with traditional displays.
