Giving a shape to time.
After experimenting night shift work, I understood that our living habits are based on our rythm of life.
Therefore, a day is the reflection of our lifestyle, of our personnality.
This led me to a broader question :
Could time be shaped?
And how our daytime be reflected on our environnement?
concept
The solution lives in the materialisation of the time itself.
Through this clock, the user is invited to "fold" the time using his hand. The user can litterally highlight a specific time of their day and communicate it to their surrounding.
experimentations
manipulation
The user programs manually a time of the day that is special to him.
When this time comes, the light placed on the needle of the clock meets the teinted glass, letting a bright light shine.

The "folded-time" is highlighted at the right moment.
Then, thank to a magnet inside the clock, the second skin will be folded up in a second time.
