This clock concept is by Argentina-based industrial designer Agustin Papadopulos. Spiritually, it recalls Braun's iconic AB 20--except it's made out of steel, and laser-cut from a single sheet: Tyme invites users to activate the object through the simple act of folding rather than using traditional joints. This process emphasizes material efficiency while exploring the symbolic relationship between self-construction and the passage of time.
