UNO wall clock - design object and time display

Klaus Botta, 04.09.2023

The UNO wall clock is both a spatial object and an almost silent time display. In typical UNO fashion, it displays the time with just one (hour) hand. Pleasantly quiet and without any noticeable movement. The UNO wall clock is a statement for a relaxed approach to time. The high-contrast clock scale is intuitive and logical: Between the twelve large hour markers with the hour digits are the half-hour markers, the quarter-hour markers and the five-minute markers, staggered according to size. After just a short period of familiarization, you can read the time graphically at a glance.
