Brilio.net/en - Time flies, doesnt it? Ever wished you could turn back time to cherish the moments you fondly miss? Needed a break so badly that you wanted time to slow down for once? Well, a clock called Today has been designed exquisitely so that you can optimize your day by not having to feel any sort of time pressure. Wonder how? Unlike the usual clock youre used to seeing, Todays arm completes only one revolution each day, and instead of using numbers to differentiate time, it makes use of a color gradient that is divided into four quadrants- noon, 6PM, midnight and 6AM.
At first sight, some of you may be bewildered by this invention. However, the response in just a matter of days since Today made its debut on crowdfunding website Kickstarter has simply been overwhelming. Scott Thrift, the genius behind this idea, pledged to raise $24,000 to fund this project. Today, it has raised a whopping $200,000! Prior to this, Scott had invented The Present, a similar clock that completed one rotation in 365 days as it was designed to symbolize different seasons. At that time, it successfully raised close to $100,000.

The Kickstarter campaign for Time will end on the July 1st. If youre convinced that this clock will help you get away from the rush cycle that youre trapped in, better get yourself one for a minimum price of US$88 because it will eventually sell for US$118 this December. Three prototypes are on offer: Bamboo Desk Clock, Bamboo Wall Clock and Steel & Glass Wall Clock. Each clock is meticulously handcrafted to perfection. As Scott stated, I'm on Kickstarter to share this powerful timepiece with you because I'm confident that living with Today will do the same or something similarly profound for you. Today has helped me regulate my sleep patterns and resonate with the idea that every day is a gift.Now heres your chance to lead your life without the crunching pressure of Father Time on your shoulders!
