Each Bento clock is a unique telling of a chromatic story between shape and color. Colors are very important and should be composed carefully when telling a story or portraying a personality or mood.
Inspired by no other than Japanese bento lunch-boxes, the clock hands in each compartments correspond to the hours, minutes, and seconds. Bento Clocks also convey a reassuring message reminding us that we have to take time for our daily meetings with pleasure, such as eating and food. Time is not only linear, as Occidental philosophies would have us believe, it is also organized in moments, compartments; it becomes peaceful and restful when well-ordered and repetitive.
