The Home Away Clock is an excellent use of visual design techniques melded with an otherwise boring every-day item. By graying out the second clock face, the viewer’s eye is drawn to the primary display.

This allows you to decide whether the secondary input is required before forcing your eye to the Away side of the clock. Both are clearly visible and simple clock faces that contrast against an otherwise stark white piece of electronics.

The Home Away Clock was designed by Kit Men and will be on display at the Art Directors Club Gallery beginning on Oct. 21. The Clock was ultimately designed for Hong Kong based RMS electronics, but there’s no word on a price tag.

This is perfect for the world traveler or as a desk clock for anyone that works with international business partners. That is, if you can get your hands on one.
