Kehai Clock by Makoto Koizumi, White

The Kehai Clock transforms and represents our relationship to time, named for the Japanese concept of“kehai” (気配), meaning "the presence of something in the vicinity".

It is an intriguing and deliberately ambiguous embodiment of time, with the hour and minute hands behind a pane of frosted glass. The red dot, marking seconds, slowly and smoothly orbits the face, like the rising and setting of the sun. Mounted on the wall, it silently records and reflects the passage of time.

The thin, delicate, yet strong aluminum frame is manufactured by Takata Factory using casting technology.

"We sometimes find the presence of a clock unpleasant.
And sometimes the existence of time is also unpleasant.
So a slightly ambiguous sign of time is just fine."
--Makoto Koizumi
