The wall clock designed by Studio STG for Guzzini in the 1980s is a striking example of Italian postmodern design. Characterized by bold geometry and playful asymmetry, the clock reflects the experimental spirit of the decade, when designers challenged conventional notions of form and function.
Crafted in plastic, a material strongly associated with Guzzini’s pioneering innovations in domestic design since the mid-20th century, the clock combines industrial production with an expressive, sculptural presence.
Its composition features graphic elements that transform a functional timekeeping object into a decorative statement piece.
A distinctive feature of the piece is its background, made of clear transparent acetate. While it may appear white at first glance, this effect is created by the white wall visible through the material; in reality, the surface is fully transparent. This use of acetate introduces a sense of lightness and visual layering, allowing the clock to interact with its surrounding environment and subtly change depending on its placement.
Today, this rare piece is regarded as an iconic example of 1980s Italian design, illustrating Guzzini’s commitment to experimentation, color, and the expressive potential of plastic in everyday objects.
