Architecture of Objects: Clock

Task 3:

Design a clock-

I designed 2. Shaun presented an early foam-core clock he designed and successfully marketed to MOMA (Museum Of Modern Art) immediately after assigning this task. Though my initial design utilized a white plastic as its primary material, I chose to also pursue a low-cost lasercut FoamCore iteration. Both designs were fairly comparable in cost, the primary design cost roughly $20, and the FoamCore iteration $15. Mass production and bulk material purchasing would easily cut cost down to roughly half, or $10 each.
