The QlockTwo Clock Spells Out the Time
Rose Nazarali — August 20, 2009 — Art & Design
The QlockTwo Clock is a completely new way to tell time. Instead of using the traditional number dial system that we are taught to use in elementary school (although some of us never did get the hang of it), QlockTwo uses words to display the current time.
Designed by Biegert & Funk, the QlockTwo Clock display features a variety of words and highlights words to make phrases such as “It is five past nine” and "It’s half past twelve."
