Around Five
Time Art
Around Five was born from the meeting between Antoine Lorotte and Philippe Vallat, engineer and designer with many collaborations on various exceptional projects to their credit.
In parallel to their activities, they have created Around Five, carrying the values of pleasure, quality and innovation.
Quality & innovation
Around Five is a project that was imagined and realized locally, with passionate professionals with unique and complementary skills.
Designed and made in Switzerland, Around Five strives for the highest quality.
Don't be fooled by the apparent obviousness of the purified forms as they are in fact the result of a long and meticulous work where each detail counts.
Counterpoint
Around Five chose to leave the standard logic of the unbridled mass production and to turn to the extra-ordinary. Creativity as a counterpoint, and poetry so that new and rare objects could come to life.

Designed and engineered in Switzerland by Around Five, Sculpture of Time A5-01 is a unique table clock that allows to experience Time differently.
The adventure of Around Five begins with their sculpture of time, which changes according to time of day. It suggests a different way of measuring time, based upon the sun’s path and its curved outline which appears and vanishes behind the horizon.
The relentless scrolling of digital seconds is replaced here by a poetic and architectural time frame, encouraging encounters. The so to speak slow time of the clock, literally “analogical”, invites to contemplation and to enjoy the present moment.
