Patti wanted Roy to make a clock that looked like it would belong in one of the Superman cartoons from the 1940s. This is what he came up with.
The waterfall edge is a throwback to the art deco style of the 1930s and 1940s, as are the contrasting woods used for the cardinal points. The American art deco style was one of optimism and excitement about the future, and we hope we've captured some of that feeling in this clock.
