STORY: The Levitating Timepiece

STORY by Swedish Flyte is a levitating timepiece that orbits around a wooden base, counting the hours, minutes or even years.

The designed object was built with three modes. With the Journey setting, you can set your mechanism to a specific date, watching the magnetic ball travel along the circular piece of wood until the ball reaches an upcoming moment such as a vacation or birth of a child. Selecting Clock allows you to use the object more like a traditional timepiece, and finally Timer acts as a short term countdown for kitchen prep or time out.
