Description
TEMPUS: TIMEPIECE
THE TEMPUS IS NOT MERELY A TIMEKEEPING DEVICE; IT IS A KINETIC ART PIECE. THE DARKENED REFLECTIONS OF ITS SURROUNDINGS IN THE OBSIDIAN CREATE A DYNAMIC INTERPLAY OF LIGHT AND SHADOW, OFFERING A SENSE OF DELICATE MASS AND DEPTH. THIS VISUAL EFFECT IS BOTH CALMING AND MESMERIZING, INTENDED TO ALLEVIATE STRESS THROUGH ITS PATTERNS OF BUILDING LIGHT.
THE CLASSIC IS THE ORIGINAL, ICONIC TEMPUS. DESIGNED INGRAPHITE FROSTED GLASS WITH A BRONZE GRAINED FRAME, THIS CLOCK IS THE PERFECT CENTRE PIECE FOR ANY MODERN INTERIOR. COMES WITH 15 BUILT IN LIGHT PATTERNS FROM THE ITALIAN MADE RGB LED LIGHT ENGINE. INCLUDES FULL TIME ACCESS TO THE TEMPUS CONTROL APP ALLOWING USERS TO CREATE AN INFINITE CHOICE OF LIGHT COLOURS AND PATTERNS. DESIGNED TO CHANGE THE WAY WE EXPERIENCE TIME. WITHOUT NUMBERS OR HANDS, TEMPUS BEAUTIFULLY PRESENTS THE TIME ACROSS 12 HOURS IN REAL TIME, USING A MESMERISING AND THERAPEUTICALLY CALMING BUILDING PATTERN OF LIGHT. CREATED AS A BEAUTIFUL YET FUNCTIONAL, KINETIC ART PIECE FOR USE IN BOTH RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL SITUATIONS IN PLACE OF A TRADITIONAL PIECE OF STATEMENT ART. A TIMEPIECE FIT FOR THE 21ST CENTURY.
