SOLARLA

Since ever, the natural spectacle of the solar eclipse, when the moon temporarily obscures the sun, has made us pause and reflect on the wonders of the universe. This unique phenomenon serves as a source of inspiration for the development of an extraordinary wall clock.

The concept was driven by the poetic idea of capturing the beauty and fascination of the solar eclipse in an everyday object. The clock should not only measure the time, but above all offer an aesthetic experience.

A unique element of this clock are the halved tennis balls, which are painted white on the inside and inserted into the circular surfaces. The distance between the hands and the tennis balls creates a seemingly floating effect, while light and shadow create a fascinating interplay - a kind of solar eclipse on the surface of the clock.
