Minimalist Grid Clocks

The minimalist grid clock is a modern design that will nevertheless live well in traditional homes as well. A simple design, it boasts a mathematical pattern that gives the face a textured appeal. Interestingly, it was "inspired by the idea of infinite regularity and the potential for abstraction inherent in the grid (think: Rubik's Cubes, hopscotch, orthographic projection) and suggests that the experience of time is simultaneously measured and abstract," states the designer.

Created by Assembly Design, a studio based in New York City, the minimalist grid clock is dubbed 00 Clock. Made out of PCV, the product boasts reversible metal hands for a change in decor or to reflect a change in mood. Available in all-white, the minimalist grid clock would make a great gift.
