These three cleverly-designed clocks make the world look nicer… and the gods know we need that on a Monday morning!

Clockr (pictured above) by Mario Klingermann uses photographs of numbers randomly selected from the picture-sharing website Flickr. There’s also a Clockr screen saver for Windows.

The Industorius Clock by Yugo Nakamura uses animated images of hand-drawn numbers. (Thanks to Richard Watts for the pointer.)

Water Clock

And finally this 8-metre high water clock uses 260 litres of coloured fluid and some very clever plumbing to full glass spheres as time passes. (Thanks to _information aesthetics_ for that one — check their site for links to more pictures and an explanation of how it works.)
