Saw Blade Timepieces

The CuTime Wall Clock is Sharp Yet Subtle Despite its Industrial Roots

— May 21, 2011 — Art & Design
If you want to add some more cutting-edge decor to your living space, I suggest you start with the CuTime Wall Clock. In fact, I think you should end with that as well. Practical style doesn't get sharper than this, that's for sure.

Designed by the Italy-based firm Flussocreativo, the CuTime Wall Clock is clearly inspired by a circular saw blade. Who knew such an industrial tool could look so subtle and sophisticated? Although it is definitely made with a man in mind, I am almost positive that the ladies will also appreciate its minimal aesthetic and unique design.

According to the designers, the CuTime Wall Clock "represents time as an essential component of production. It is conceived as a critique of working time, it snaps presumption of a time constraint together with a claim for a professional result."
