Entrance flooring that stops dirt and moisture being tracked into carriages, on the soles of shoes and wheel treads, is fundamental to modern rail vehicle design. An effective entrance system reduces premature wear and tear to interior floor coverings, minimises cleaning and maintenance costs and protects passengers by reducing slip hazards.
In 1947, American designer George Nelson was commissioned to create a collection of clocks, leading to the iconic Nelson Clocks. Nelson observed that people read time by the position of the clock hands, rendering numbers unnecessary, and recognized that clocks had evolved into decorative elements for interiors. This insight inspired the 1949 launch of 14 unique wall and table clock designs, characterized by their absence of numbers and a diverse array of shapes, colors, and materials. Over the next 35 years, Nelson Associates designed over 100 clock models, including wall, table, and built-in clocks. Following Nelson’s passing in 1986, his extensive archive of 7,400 manuscripts, plans, and photographs was acquired by the Vitra Design Museum, which began reissuing the Nelson Clocks in 1999. These clocks, crafted from various woods and metals and powered by high-quality quartz movements, remain a stylish and functional alternative to traditional timepieces. A 3D file of the product is available for download, offering a digital representation of its design. Vitra, the Swiss family-owned company behind the reissue, is renowned for its innovative furniture, lighting, and accessories, collaborating with legendary designers like George Nelson to create timeless, modern pieces that blend aesthetics with functionality.
