Dubai – Mubasher: Architect and clock designer Amjad Al Haj unveiled the design for the Dubai Clock, which is estimated at AED 700,000 ($190,571) at the Hotel Show.
The award-winning architect described the clock as “symbol and a reminder of the city of Dubai,” according to a statement.
Al Haj further noted that the three-metre high clock was made for luxury hotels, to complement their interiors and give them a unique feel.
“While designing the beautiful masterpiece, the only things I imaged was how it would enhance the look and feel of any luxury hotel,” the architect said.
Made of steel, the Dubai Clock includes various shapes with numbers arranged on glass surfaces. It can be placed inside a luxury hotel or indoor or outdoor squares, or parks.
The Dubai Clock was designed “as a piece of artistry and features a combination of magnificence and attraction,” the statement added.
The timepiece designer further said: “It is not wrong when one says that the right timepieces accentuate the architecture, complement the other furnishing and improve the overall guest experience.”
