Vitra Zoo Timers Wall Clock Omar The Owl
Manufacturer: Vitra | Designer: George Nelson, 1965
Playful Characters for the Wall
Designed by George Nelson in 1965, the Zoo Timers are a world apart from his sculptural wall clocks of the 1950s. Where those are exercises in abstraction and material precision, the Zoo Timers are hand-drawn, graphic, and unabashedly playful — characters from the animal kingdom rendered in bold multicoloured print on plywood. Omar the Owl watches the room with wide, knowing eyes — his graphic silhouette bold enough to hold a wall, his colours vivid enough to delight.
- Dimensions — H25.5 × W27 × D3.5cm
- Materials — Plywood with multicoloured print; sheet metal hands
- Movement — High-quality quartz; 1.5V battery included
Also available: Fernando the Fish and Elihu the Elephant. Part of the Vitra Accessories collection.
