About Long Time Sienas pulkstenis
Long Time Clock ir iedvesmots no aizraujošās kirigami mākslas – tradicionālas japāņu tehnikas, kas skaisti apvieno papīra locīšanu un griešanu. Tāpat kā kirigami, šis pulkstenis ir mākslas un funkcionalitātes apvienojums. Griešanas un locīšanas tehnika ļauj izveidot romiešu ciparus uz pulksteņa sāniem. Rezultātā paši cipari it kā izlec no metāla sloksnes, radot pozitīvo un negatīvo laukumu spēli. Izgatavots no ar lāzeri grieztas alumīnija sloksnes, pulkstenis ir projektēts ilgtspējīgi, lai samazinātu materiāla atkritumus.

Behind the Design
Press Kit
Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.
- Unique Properties
- The clock is made from a single narrow strip of metal. The cutting and folding technique allows for the creation of Roman numerals on the clock's sides. As a result, the numerals themselves seem to leap out of the metal strip, creating a play of positive and negative areas. The clock is positioned 5 cm away from the wall and appears to be floating.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- Size: 96.5X17X5 cm / 38X6.7X2 Inches

- Production Technology
- Made from a high-quality, laser-cut strip of aluminum, the clock has been sustainably designed to minimize material waste.
- Design Challenge
- Balancing the artistic aspect of kirigami with the functional requirements of a clock was tricky. Designing Roman numerals that can be cut and folded effectively from the aluminum strip while remaining visually appealing and easily readable poses a creative challenge.
- Research
- The study centered on the design aspects of the product, incorporating the development of numerous paper models and layouts. This entailed the analysis of dimensions, proportions, fonts, and the structural integrity of the forthcoming clock. The investigation resulted in the choice of Roman numerals 3 and 9 as the central design elements, chosen for their symmetry, which enabled the application of the Kirigami effect.
- Inspiration
- The clock was inspired by kirigami, the Japanese art of folding and cutting paper. In kirigami, paper is both folded and cut, resulting in a three-dimensional design that stands out from the page.
- Project Duration
- March 2020 - July 2020 Studio Wallaby, Yoqneam-Ilit, Israel
- Operation Flow
- The clock arrives ready to use and can be hung on the wall with two screws.
