Welcome

Hello, and welcome to our Home!

Made at Home was established in April 2008 by freelance designer, Stuart Cadge. Made at Home is a small-scale design agency catering to your design needs, whatever they may be. Rather than specializing in one medium, we react to people, situations and events to create designs that reflect your lifestyle and particular needs. We believe that design solutions should be as varied and particular as you are.

We design small-scale architectural projects, products, furniture, 2D and 3D visualizations and temporary installations.

So, take a look around, make yourselves at home, and if there’s something we can do for you, let us know!

Clockbox

Conceived prior to a world tour in the Summer of 2007, Clockbox is a portable time-keeping device with a difference. Measuring just 5cm3, this clever little cube can tell you the time in up to 5 world cities simultaneously. At the touch of a button these cities can be adjusted, and with a choice of over 100 locations to choose from, even the most well-travelled jetsetter will be satisfied.

Clockbox uses digital LCD screens connected to a central circuit board, for greater ease of time adjustment. This is wrapped in an elegant leather skin, and is finished with hand-stitching. Clockbox beautifully fuses traditional and contemporary design to create a timepiece that will be treasured forever.

A first working prototype has already been completed.
