Naoki Terada Carved Wall Clock
Carved Wall Clock is Silver Design Award winner in 2017 - 2018 Furniture Design Award Category.
Carved Wall Clock

His stunning new clock designs for Lemnos are, as the collection title suggests, "Carved". Subtle, yet immediately noticeable, the numbers on these clocks are carved indents cut so close to the edge of the faces that the top of them are actually chopped off. The shadows of the carved-out letters bring a three-dimensional impression to the clock face, with its appearance changing in accordance with lights located in its immediate area. The idea was inspired by materials used for interior decoration and technical conversion.
