designer's own words:
Time is a big motivation making people move. We cannot stop or hold time, so we try to move ourselves most effectively not to waste it.
Time Scale is a tool helping this effective movement of busy contemporary people.
Zooming out time:
It visualizes 12 hours in a linear way and it means our most productive hours of the day. Depending on a user’s lifestyle, starting point
can be set at 6 or 9, or even 9:30. It doesn't show the exact time like a clock but by visualizing time amount that we have, we can
divide the time and plan our day more easily.
Zooming in time:
In 12 hour path of Time Scale, its user can clearly see in which point of the path he/she is or how much amount of time is left so
that the user focuses more on the remaining time usage. The user also can consider Time Scale as a kind of loose stopwatch
to finish a work within a certain amount of time. The linear bar display and 10 minute unit indicator make it a less stressful but
more visual stopwatch.
The virtue of Time Scale is flexibility of time setting. The starting point can be tuned with clock but also can be set
at the moment of a certain action, for example, the minute of entering your office in the morning, sitting on your desk or
starting a specific task.
Time Scale is a simple and stationary-size product. Zoom out and plan your day! Zoom in and focus on your task!
