A family of five bathroom and home accessories were commissioned by legendary creative director Takuya Matsuda for the Japanese retail company Franc franc under the brief of being ‘likeable and friendly’. They were: a toothbrush, a shampoo bottle, a soap dispenser, a photo frame and a wall clock.
The Tic-tac wall clock has two circular indentations in the face of the clock that trace the paths of the minute and the hour hands. The light in the room defines the circle shapes through shadows.
