Our sense of time passing is marked by the earth rotating into and out of sunlight and a linear solution best reflects this process. The cylindrical body of the Around Clock rotates behind the static red time line so we simultaneously see the past slipping away, the present and the ever-approaching future.

Often, the motive for contemporary lighting design is to create a visually unique statement to be the focal point of a room. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52c2cac9e4b077a7b030e157/1414358416831-T0AA7CV4SEQ869MHUC7K/Refreshed+Anglepoise+1.jpg Projects 'Refreshed' was my entry into the Teddy's Wish silent auction held at designjunctiuon 2014.
