# Water-Dripping Wake-ups The Dreamtime Alarm Clock Starts Every Morning Off Peacefully By Harris Jay Rosenberg Alterman | Published 2012-01-26 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dreamtime-alarm-clock References: [psfk](http://www.psfk.com/2012/01/dreamcatcher-alarm-clock.html) & [verawiedermann](http://www.verawiedermann.com/default.php?lang=en#productsdiv) The Dreamtime alarm clock allows for the mellow wake up you wish you could have. If you're sick and tired of waking up to that awful beeping noise that sounds like a dying robot, try this [gentle-sounded alternative](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/international-delight-cinnabon-alarm-clocks) instead. Every night before you go to bed, simply fill up one side with water and hit the hay. While you sleep, the Dreamtime alarm clock slowly drips water into a small vessel. As the dripping container becomes lighter, it begins to rise while its counterweight on the other side drops. By the time morning comes around, the dripping has finished and the counterweight triggers a little hammer that [wakes you up](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nintendo-sound-clock-alarmo) with a light 'ting.' Wake up feeling refreshed every morning and get the Dreamtime alarm clock so you can sleep with ease. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.5/10 - Popularity: 16% | Activity: 51% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## 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 - **Mellow Wake-up:** Using gentle sounds and water dripping to create a peaceful wake-up experience. - **Alternative Alarm Clocks:** Exploring innovative alternatives to traditional noisy alarm clocks. - **Sleep Enhancement:** Developing products that optimize sleep quality and promote well-being. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Home Goods:** The Dreamtime alarm clock falls under the home goods industry as an alternative alarm clock option. - **Wellness:** The sleep enhancement trend presents opportunities for wellness brands to create products that improve sleep quality. - **Technology:** The mellow wake-up trend opens doors for technological advancements in alarm clock design and functionality. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Gentle Alarm Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arc-alarm-clock.md) - [Chic Circadian Rhythm Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hatch-restore-2.md) - [Elegant Aromatic Alarm Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paramita-universal-alarm-clock.md) - [Coffee-Brewing Sunrise Alarm Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/optimrise-sunrise-alarm-clock.md) - [Silent Wake-Up Wristbands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wakeband.md) - [Silent Wearable Alarm Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/silentwakeup.md) - [Tranquil Coffee Aroma Alarms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sunrise-alarm.md) - [Minimal Wake-Aware Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wake-sleep-light.md) - [Calm Reading Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/novellamate.md)
