Removing circles and adding Roman numerals may make it more modern, but way less functional. Like idk why in 2026 we’re making it hard to read clocks 💀

Google "modern clock" and note what patterns you notice. What materials and colors are being used? What shapes do you see? How are those shapes put together? What do you NOT see?

If the use of roman numerals on an incredibly standardized object makes it debilitating to read then Im frankly more concerned for literacy of the greater population than how modern or legible this clock is.

What about children who haven’t learned Roman numerals yet and are just learning how to read a clock? Or the fact that analog clocks simply are not an everyday thing anymore. As far as I’m aware, there’s not a single one at my university.

This is why clocks in schools are standardized with non roman numerals. Idk where you are that your school doesnt have a single clock but I find that hard to believe, theyre everywhere, people just dont pay attention to them bc they have a digital clock in their pocket. Its a design project. Modern design used sharper figures like roman numerals. Thats all it is
