What should a clock be like? It’s not just a timer, but also a piece of art. Traditional clocks simply tick away the moments, often lacking beauty and creativity. Enter the Fibonacci Clock, a timepiece designed for those who appreciate the blend of artistry and function.
The Fibonacci Clock utilizes six color blocks, with side length corresponding to the Fibonacci numbers: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, and 8. These blocks display different colors to tell the time in a truly unique way (with white blocks being ignored).
HOUR = Red block + Blue block
MINUTES = (Green block + Blue block) * 5 + Yellow block - Purple block
For example, in the first clock shown below:
Hour: Red 1 + Red 8 + Blue 2 = 1 + 8 + 2 = 11
Minutes: (Green 5 + Blue 2) * 5 + Yellow 1 = ( 5 + 2 ) * 5 + 1 = 36
Thus, the time is 11.36.
The Fibonacci Clock, transforming timekeeping into a dynamic visual experience and making each moment special, is more than just a clock; it's a statement piece that combines functionality with the elegance of nature's patterns.
Whether it's in your living room, office, or an art gallery, the Fibonacci Clock is sure to be a conversation starter. Its unique design complements any decor, making it a versatile addition to any setting. The clock also works for kids and students to help them better understand Fibonacci sequence, golden ratio and math.
