This interactive time-planning clock cleverly merges traditional and modern elements in its design, showcasing a blend of materials and rich textural layers. The dial is made from 3mm thick smooth wooden panels, offering a simple yet elegant look while ensuring stability and durability. It also reflects a focus on environmental sustainability, emphasizing eco-friendly values. The sliders are crafted from 0.66mm frosted PP material, providing a comfortable touch and excellent anti-slip properties. The clock hands are laser-cut from ebony wood, preserving the natural texture of the material and adding a unique character to the product. The overall design is sleek and sophisticated, easily blending with various interior styles while balancing both beauty and responsibility.

This interactive time-planning clock preserves the core function of precise timekeeping found in traditional quartz clocks while offering an innovative upgrade to time management. The dial clearly marks the 24-hour time format, providing an intuitive display of the daily time distribution. The unique slider-based interactive design, inspired by fan-shaped masks and pie charts, allows users to freely adjust the angle and position of the sliders, visually representing their daily schedules. The adjustable layering design enables the addition or removal of sliders, making the clock adaptable to different life stages and fully catering to personalized needs. The hands feature an extended design that exceeds the color block range, enhancing the visual contrast between time and planning, helping users stay more focused on managing their time.

The design philosophy of this product is to "make time more intuitive and convenient." By turning abstract time into a tangible form, users can clearly see the proportion and distribution of daily activities, enabling them to plan and organize their tasks more efficiently. This design not only enhances time management skills but also promotes the development of regular habits, improving overall quality of life. Additionally, the product uses fun and interactive features to help children understand time concepts and cultivate their sense of time and responsibility.
