The CLOCK, designed by Hyeongkon Lee, is a disguised dehumidifier. Rather than using the traditional dehumidifer shape, the designer chose to hide the device's functions behind a clock-like appearance. The goal is to give users the opportunity to place the device in their homes without disrupting their decor style.
Its minimalist design ensures that it will match any room of the house. The device is complete with a blue circle that travels along its circumference, acting as a timer for the dehumidifier's function. Additionally, the CLOCK includes an LED light strip that serves as a meter to indicate how much water has been collected inside its tank. The CLOCK is both functional and stylish, ideal for any home.
