Information Decoration for Dummies
With this cooking timer gadget, you can explain information decoration to anyone. In addition to its default explicit digital time display, it has a modus in which the passing of time can be displayed implicitly with the number of blocks piled at the bottom. Making it more like a sandglass (with that natural analog feeling). Yes, it would have been even better if the decorative function was integrated in the stove.

Nice! Reminds me of my graduation project (2001) in which I presented a watch that uses a flash loading bar: 24 hours being 100%
Of course it would have been an even better example of infodeco if the gadget was integrated in the architecture of the kitchen… but i understand this is difficult, being a gadget and all..
I like it. sort of like a sunrise for cooking
The future is analog!
