Deliverables

Mechanical exploration 3D-printed prototying Product visualisation

Flow is a kinetic timer designed to visualise the passage of time through a continuous, self-feeding movement of rolling balls. Created for mindfulness practices, the object translates time and energy into a calm, rhythmic experience.

Rather than relying on complex mechanical systems with gears and bearings, the design explores how single material and 3D-printed assembly can achieve motion through form alone.
