Rules are made to be rearranged. The Spaces Unhooked Modern Roman Numeral Round Wall Clock keeps just three oversized Roman numerals on a clean white dial, placed with a playful, offbeat sense of balance. It is minimal, witty and full of attitude.

Three Big Numerals, Lots of Personality

Only three bold black Roman numerals are printed on this dial, IX, II and V, drawn large in a heavy, wide typeface and placed at different points around the face. The rest of the dial is left clean and white, with no other markings, which gives the design a modern, gallery-like look. Black hour and minute hands and a thin second hand sweep across the white background, and the Spaces Unhooked mark sits neatly above the centre.

Simple Frame, Strong Outline

Around the dial runs a smooth black frame with a rounded profile. It works like a picture mount, drawing the eye inward, and its dark tone gives the round shape a confident outline on the wall. A clear cover protects the dial, so the print stays clean and bright.

Modern, Playful and Gallery-Style Walls

An unconventional dial is a great way to make a wall feel curated. Hang this clock in a creative office, a living room with contemporary art, a studio apartment, a hallway gallery wall or a design studio. It pairs well with black frames, light wood and neutral walls, and it suits modern, Scandinavian and eclectic interiors. Design lovers will enjoy the way it turns telling time into a small puzzle.

A Puzzle You Solve in Seconds

The three numerals give you clear landmarks, and the long black hands do the rest. After a day or two, reading the time on this dial becomes second nature.

Choosing the Right Spot

Before you hang your clock, think about where you will look at it most. In a kitchen, place it where it can be seen from the stove and the table. In a bedroom, hang it opposite the bed or by the door. In an office, keep it in your line of sight without glare from windows. A well-placed clock saves you from reaching for your phone.

Gift It with Confidence

This clock makes a memorable present for someone who loves playful, modern design. It works well for housewarmings, birthdays and studio gifts, and because it looks good in almost any room, you can give it without worrying about clashing with existing decor.

Simple Care

Mount the clock on a sturdy hook in a spot that is dry and out of harsh sun. Dust the frame with a soft dry cloth and clean the clear cover with a lightly damp microfibre cloth, then dry it straight away. When the hands begin to run slowly, simply fit a fresh battery.
