Nearly invisible clock concept makes time vanish like a ghost

We have almost opposing attitudes towards time. On the one hand, the timepieces on our wrists and walls make us painfully aware of the passage of time. On the other hand, we also dread that flow, especially when we feel there arent enough hours in a day. We wish we could just make time disappear or ignore it, and yet feel anxious when we lose track of it.This minimalist wall clock embodies that dichotomy, that tug of war that pulls at our minds and hearts. It clearly exists to tell the time or at least some semblance of it. You might not be able to tell the time with precision, though, because this clock feels like its about to vanish into thin air like a ghost, something we wish for yet also dread.Designer: Fatih DemirciTheres no shortage of minimalist clock designs in the market, but almost all of them have one thing in common. They all, or at least most of them, make telling the time easy. After all, without much extraneous decorations and details, its easier to just see the hands and markings, presuming the latter are actually there, which some minimalist designs dont.This clock design concept goes overboard and might as well not have hands at all. Yes, those are there, of course, but theyre just very subtle bumps that you might not even notice if youre looking at it from the wrong angle. Its almost as if time has vanished, which may cause your blood to start pumping.Inspired by the way objects look under drapery, this clock stretches a thin fabric over the hour and minute hands without constricting their movement. The bumps slowly move along the circumference of the clock, like slow-moving ghosts. Its both mesmerizing and haunting, a dichotomy as mysterious as the way you view time.As a clock, this nearly invisible Ghost Clock is probably not the best, since you cant tell the time precisely from it. It does, however, work as an excellent design object, one that injects a bit of mystery and playfulness into your space. And just like a good ghost story, it might even keep you on your toes lest your missed appointments come back to haunt you.The post Nearly invisible clock concept makes time vanish like a ghost first appeared on Yanko Design.
