立方时钟

cubicclock

for THE HOUR GLASS

A clock that is designed in the shape of a slanted cubethanks to a sliced-off vertex that allows the clock to balance on its corner.The long and the short hands overlap one another 22 times throughout the day,but only at noon and midnight they will meet in the vertical-upright positionand will complete the cube’s shape, as if time is reset after completing atwelve-hour cycle. The functionality of the clock is created by removing andcutting elements of the cube, rather than adding unnecessary parts andmaterials, resulting in a clock that reveals it’s true form, only twice in aday.

 

立方时钟

我们把一个倾斜的立方体设计成了时钟,立方体切去的一角使时钟能够在平面上保持平衡。

时钟的时针与分针在一天中相遇22次,但只有在中午和午夜时分,它们才会以垂直竖立的方式重叠,拼凑成一个完整的立方体的形状,就像时间在十二小时的循环后重制一样。时钟的显示时间功能由立方体切去的部分实现,而不必添加额外的零件和材料,也正是如此,时钟每天只有两次(中午和午夜)才能够显示其完整的形状。
