Collaborative designs
We invite artists, photographers, sculptors and creative practitioners of every discipline to collaborate with Hora Tempus in transforming their work into an exceptional timepiece.
The result may be an intimate clock for a private collection, a sculptural centrepiece for an architectural setting, or a strictly limited artist edition of just 25 individually numbered timepieces. Each limited edition clock is supplied with a presentation plaque and certificate of authenticity.
From the first conversation and initial sketches through to prototyping, manufacture and presentation, we manage the technical development while respecting the creative integrity of the artist.
If you have a body of work that could take on a new dimension through time, we would be delighted to explore the possibilities with you.
Our capabilities extend from precision cut metals, glass and specialist finishes to timber, printed surfaces, gilding and hand formed details.
Each collaboration is approached individually, combining contemporary manufacturing technology with traditional craft skills to create a timepiece that remains unmistakably connected to the artist and their work.
A painting, photograph, pattern, texture, sculpture or installation can become the starting point for something entirely new.
Working closely with each artist, our designers and engineers explore how the character of the original work can be expressed through form, scale, materials, colour, movement and the passage of time.
