stylish, this seamless and clean-edged piece of horological design is the perfect antidote to clumsy chrome clocks bristling with buttons...

I bought one for my husband when we were shooting SpinDaily.com videos at a store called Mercury (www.mercurydesignstudio.com) in Austin (part of our "Austin Fling"). It's so cool, clean and yes, the wood gives it that organic glamor. (via SpinDaily)

I bought one for my office. Form and function.

A perfect hybrid between organic and electronic, this seriously beautiful device has a place in any true gentleman's home. Besides mine. But I wouldn't be mad if someone got me one.

a block of wood as trompe l'oeil?
it's perfect.

imagine the recipient opening the box and seeing a piece of wood. the expression on his/her face until he/she realises what it really is -- should be amusing.

Ironically luddite-looking, this clever clock looks at first like an inert block of wood.

And yet -- it tells time, using an energy-efficient LED digital face.

Who says electronics have to be ugly?

I love the simplicity of this clock. It looks like a plain block of wood, but LED numbers shine through to show the time. (via Alyson)

What a cool idea for a clock! How could I not wake up in time for work with this creative time piece. (via Alyson)
