Atmos clock - Mid-century modern Copper - 1950-1960 - Boemerang space age

This model is designed in the Mid-Century Modern (MCM) style, and specifically within the Atomic Age or Space Age movement of the 1950s and 1960s. This postwar design movement was heavily influenced by the emerging spaceflight, the discovery of atomic structures, and the fascination with speed and the future. You can recognize the style by the following specific features: • Asymmetry: The dynamic, slanted form that runs off to one side (often referred to as a boomerang- or fishtail-shape). • Abstract hour markers: The numbers are omitted and replaced by twelve raised, bulb-shaped brass buttons. This minimalist, abstract dial design is an absolute hallmark of modernist clocks from that period. • Futuristic details: The clock rests on two metal spheres, creating a floating effect that was very popular in space-time era design.
