LolliClock’s design is based on re-thinking about the idea of time-telling, that time or nature should be flowing, while the mark or indicator should stay constant. Similar to the nature of the tiding waves moving on a mark, or the moving sun casting shadows on a sundial, LolliClock seeks to reconstruct time-reading and express time in its truthful way.

In the search for reducing the design into its elemental form, the conventional clock hands are then combined into a single support, and time is now marked by the rotating clock face against a constant indicator. This appears to be the solution to tell time in the most essential and user-friendly way. While the clock hands are eliminated, LolliClock enjoys a clean face where time is simply read against the support/indicator, in a graphical and animated way where the flow of time is observed by its movement.

Precision Engineering, Materiality and Production

The clock body is fabricated from prototyping machines against a digital 3D model to ensure accuracy and precise geometry, which is extremely important for the perfect round shape with the impressed graphics on the curve, and to achieve a tolerance measured in micrometre for the mechanism connection.

On the finishes, the surfaces are honed, brushed and polished to achieve the exact amount of sheen and reflection in a pristine condition.

Forming the core component of the mechanism is a Takane high torque movement imported from USA, to ensure all-time reliable power to the clock.

The support is made in stainless steel to overcome the issue with stability and material strength for the elegantly bent and cantilevering indicator/support integration in minimal thickness.

LolliClock seeks to inspire the ideal of contemporary living, addressing vibrancy in lifestyle, elegance in design, and cleanness and quality in living environment – amongst those colourful books on a feature wall, on the backdrop of a meeting table, on a display shelf of a retail shop, hanging amongst artworks in a gallery or restaurant. LolliClock is the original series released by the architecturally inspired KMAK DESIGN, which sees LolliClock as another iconic product for home/commercial furniture of the era.

LolliClock is on display in Supa Centa - Australia's leading furniture and lifestyle shopping mall.

LolliClock’s original prototypes are on exhibition in Sydney’s largest design event in Workshopped 12. Interests and inspirations were intrigued and the iconic design set the benchmark of its time.

LolliClock was first unveiled and exhibited in the Finders Keepers Brisbane 2012.
