This wonderful font explosion is from designer Sebastian Wrong and manufacturer Established & Sons. It is a time and date flip clock that uses twelve very distinct typefaces in its display. It comes in three different sizes, the smallest only including the time section. Unfortunatly at a little over £800 I can’t afford one at the moment.

The essence of the idea is the twelve fonts, all chosen for their design strength and individuality and all of which are twentieth century apart from one, an English 18th century script. In theory, at given points within the annual time cycle, all the fonts will run together for five minutes.
