Bespoke water clock for Wessex Water

Bristol-based design engineer James Coleman, founder of James Designs, has completed the design of a bespoke water clock for Wessex Water’s new headquarters in Bath.

The 3mhigh Vortex Water Clock features an inner transparent cylinder, containing a vortex that varies in height according to the minutes in each hour.

The water in its outer cylinder indicates the hour, and gradually fills up over a 12-hour period. The clock is backlit to create water reflections on nearby surfaces.
