There are millions of clocks in the market today. Clocks are a big business. There was a time when it seemed nig old houses had the staple grandfather clock. I myself have visited numerous homes with such clocks, some even too small to accommodate them. But recently due to the rising cost of real estate, homes have been getting smaller. Downsizing has been the trend not only in homes but in furniture and cars as well. Smaller homes usually mean smaller a smaller bed, a simpler bathroom, mirror, and a casual clock.

I personally prefer a minimalist trend. Simple, modern furniture are far more attractive to me than the bulky designs usually found in grand homes. A casual clock on top of a wooden cabinet or over a blank wall is enough for me. I am also amused by clocks with quirky colorful designs. As long as I can tell the time from across the room, it works for me.
