max bill – architect of time

max bill was one of the most unusual artists of our age. a true uni versal
genius,  he  worked  as  an  architecht,  painter,  sculptor  and  product
designer, leaving behind an extensive body of work. this includes one
of the most fascinating timepiece series made, still produced in almost
unchanged form today: the wall clocks and wristwatches that he de -
veloped  for  junghans.  as  a  bauhaus  student  of  walter  gropius,  he
 intuitively  understood  how  to  apply  the  pursuit  of  constructive  clarity
and precise proportions to his work.
