CYCLOCK
The goal of this project was to design an alarm clock for cyclist teams who travel together, with a focus on aesthetics and an intuitive interaction. The time clock consists of the main panel with a button, and is encircled by eight individual alarm clocks. The individual clocks are connected with magnets and have curved sides that form a circle when connected to the octagon-shaped main panel. When the alarm is set, the
​
alarm clock is placed on its curved side and starts rocking back and forth to wake up the user. The alarm is turned off by placing it on its flat side. This makes for intuitive interaction with the alarm.
