Usually when a wicked design concept slams into production realities, the concept can lose a lot of swagger. But not much has been lost with Vadim Kibardin's White & White clock, a fully produceable version of Kibardin's Black & White clock concept that we fell in love with back in '09.
Whereas the Black & White clock was meant to consist of individual digits and automatically toggle between black or white coloring depending on ambient illumination, the White & White simplifies the concept for the sake of manufacturability. All of the digits are part of a single unit, and as the new title suggests, it switches between two shades of white rather than the trickier proposition of the original concept.
The White & White is scheduled to begin shipping this May.

Totally different from the original concept. Now it's been cooked down to this plastic nonsense that you usually buy in souvenirshops. Welcome to the 80ies.
