George Nelson, 1948/60. Sunburst Clok black. Progress and growing economic prosperity are central to the American way of life in the 1950s. Anything seemed possible and people were striving to be "modern." With the goal of bringing design closer to American homes, George Nelson conceived a wide range of everyday objects: lamps, clocks, and other household accessories. Until the 1970s, Nelson's office created many diverse household items. The Bubble Lamps and the Ball Clock quickly became icons of modern design. Today, their table and wall clocks remain a refreshing alternative to conventional clocks.
