Segment Table is a minimalist design created by San Francisco-based design firm Box Clever . The conception of their name came from the term “boxing clever,” a reference to how the best boxers win not only with their brawn, but with their wits as well. As designers they take a similar approach: to identify opportunities, learn from and respond to any challenges that arise, and execute flawlessly. Segment Table comes pre-designed with channels built into the surface in order to accommodate wiring and functional accessories. The table’s surface, which is constructed of multiple parts, was inspired by the ever-shifting tectonic plates sitting underneath San Francisco.

Pendulum clocks are traditionally of the, well, traditional sort housed in grandfather clocks and the like, but not anymore. Christian Kim has reinterpreted the classic pendulum clock with ZWILLING , a modernized, wall-mounted version. Both the clock face and the pendulum are the same size making the overall form a simple, minimalist design. The long pendulum swings from left to right within one second due to the magnetic pulse that allows it to keep time.
