Contour Clock Design: Not a Dull Wall Clock to Which Constancy is an Alien

Many consider that a wall clock has already lost its practical value, and remains to live in our interiors exclusively as a decorative element. Time can be looked on a watch or a mobile phone, or it will be prompted by an alarm clock on the little table near the bed. And a stylish accessory on a wall is like a necklace on the woman’s neck: you can live without it, but it will somehow feel empty and uncomfortable, -obviously, something is missing. Such clocks do need neither divisions, nor a dial. It is possible to be limited to the beautiful case and arrows. Well, or to decorate an interior with such device, as Contour Clock from the Korean company MintPass.

The idea of the given project is reflected in a slogan “Wake up the artist in yourself” as Contour Clock seem to be boring only at first sight-a white wheel sadly hanging on a wall. The matter is that these watches are capable to reincarnate obediently from “wheel” into a “telescope” or “mountainous” district as they consist of 24 “hoops” – rings which can be pulled forward and pushed inside upon the will of the owner of the device.

By the way, arrows of the unusual watch could also too be extended and shortened based on how the general form Contour Clock will be modified. In the complete set there are additional details for arrows and a detailed instruction how to use, so that everything works in the best possible way.

Unfortunately, by now Contour Clock comes only in white, and this not an interesting decision for the clocks made in the minimalistic style. But MintPass will certainly reconsider the decision when business will reach bulk merchandise of the curious device.
