Domino Clock transforms classic game into a new way to tell time. The concept is simple, there are 3 dominoes equipped with articulating “dots” that flip back and forth between black and white to keep the time. Carbon Design Group, an award winning product development consultancy, takes simple and iconic object and turns it into a unique clock that quietly marks the passing hours and minutes.
