Alessi — Momento | Aldo Rossi Design Clock

Alessi Momento - Time as a gesture of style

There is something rare about a clock capable of changing the way a room is perceived. Alessi's Momento does not simply tell the time: it tells its story, using the same visual grammar that Aldo Rossi - one of the most influential architects and theorists of the 20th century - had already applied to the renowned wristwatch of the same name. The wall version amplifies its presence, bringing to domestic walls the formal coherence of an artist who believed in the profound continuity between architecture and everyday life.

Why we chose it for you

Alessi was founded in 1921 on Lake Orta as an artisan workshop and evolved over time into what Alberto Alessi calls a "research laboratory in the applied arts": a space where design is never separated from emotion. Momento embodies this philosophy with precision: it is the monumental-scale version of an iconic object, designed by a master of Italian design. Choosing it means bringing a piece of design culture into your home, not simply a tool for measuring time.
