During his studies at Konstfack University, Stockholm, Taiwanese designer Yen-Wen Tseng created the Hand In Hand Clock (a name shared with the Johan Bisse Mattsson concept two posts down), where the hour and minute hands are linked by two more pivoting arms. Unique shapes are made by the interaction between the four joined hands.

I like how the two additional hands always mirror the timekeeping hands. I also concur with Oscar in the Dezeen comments, and would be interested in what kind of spirograph pattern is made as the pivot point advances across the wall.

Another fun note is that most craft stores I’ve shopped have all the necessary clock parts to Frankenstein your own. Definite DIY potential.

And yes, I realize I should probably just retitle my blog Hello Unusual Clock-Type-Things.
