About PinTheTime 플래너 시계는

사람들은 일반적으로 자신의 계획이 눈에 띄도록 적어 두는 것을 선호합니다. PinTheTime은 지저분한 메모를 모두 분류하도록 설계되었습니다. 사용자는 작업을 기록하고 원하는 시간과 관련된 시계 부분에 고정합니다. PinTheTime 시계의 전체 라운드는 24시간을 의미합니다. 섬세한 십자수 스티치로 봉제된 볼록한 펠트 형태는 벽에 걸린 통통한 작은 친구와 같은 시간을 의미하며, 매 촉감이 차분해지고 추운 현대 시대에 더욱 여유롭게 시간을 접근할 수 있습니다.

Unique Properties
People usually prefer writing down their plans to be in their sight, PinTheTime is designed to sort all of those messy notes. The user writes down the task and pins it on the part of the clock, which is related to the desired time of day. A complete round of PinTheTime clock means 24 hours. This convex felt shape with all delicate Cross-stitch sewing, implies time like a chubby little friend on the wall, which makes each touch calming, to have a more relaxing approach to time in these modern cold times.

Production Technology
The process started with brainstorming around planning, the ideas then illustrated by dirty sketching and initial 3d modeling. Eventually, designing details ended up in prototyping: following laser cutting plexiglass gears, pinewood body formed by machining, meanwhile, the soft part foundation was made of layers of foam; moreover, the pattern was cut out of felt and sewn by hand, before attaching to the body by glue, at the end, all gears and engine were montaged to other parts.
Design Challenge
One of the challenges was how to keep the design simple as possible and do not over-design the product and give this chance to the user to add his final touches to the design, which is realized by pining personalized notes directly to the clock. Another challenge was building a 24-hour clock because there it is not so easy to find 24-hour clock motors and also they are not strong enough, so we had to design our own mechanism to have the clock working perfectly.
Research
We were about to design an analog smart object which is completed by its user and we tried to look at time differently and see what time really means to us. When we look at our clock or watch we relate the time to our tasks. So, PinTheTime was born based on tasks and the user’s direct optimization on the final object. Writing tasks makes people more responsible for their schedules. And letting people detach from their phones makes them more concentrated on their activities.
Inspiration
PinTheTime clock ambition was to help to have a more organized daily timeline. There are now hundreds of planning apps; however, not only technology brings thousands of distractions along with itself, but also sometimes it is the reason for delays in people's plans.
There are still many people who prefer to write their tasks and stick them, though it is hard to recognize priorities. Therefore, the PinTheTime clock is designed to develop this process.
Project Duration
The project started in January 2018 in Isfahan and finished in July 2018.
Operation Flow
There are simple wooden pines to pin the papers onto a soft surface all over the clock face. The time is shown by a revolving clock hand, which moves around the outline of the clock, operated by an AA battery.
