Helveticlock
Typographic Clock
HelvetiClock is a clock represented by Helvetica typeface.
There are no arabic numbers in this clock. Instead, the current time is represented by a matrix of sixty Helvetica words and a red highlight traveling over the matrix every second.
HelvetiClock is not for daily quick reference of time as a practical clock, but for enjoying the form of the Helvetica typeface and its textural transition over time.
Features
- Current hour and minute are represented by red-marked typefaces.
- Another red highlight travels over the matrix of the typeface every second.
- Pictures from your media library can be set as the background of the typeface.
