I've seem some [surprising clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dozen-clock) before, but never one as synchronized as 'One Perfect Cube.' Consisting of [three simple clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/corner-clock), every twelves hours they come together for one second to form a perfect cube, as it name implies.

Designed by Florian Jenett, I have to wonder if 'One Perfect Cube' actually tells the time or is simply a [ticking art piece](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/radius-clock) that comes together in a fleeting form in order to comment on how fleeting life itself can be. That question aside, check out the video to see a time lapse of the work running for 24 hours.
