What is Bauhaus Clock?
Bauhaus Clock is a $19 macOS clock screensaver inspired by Bauhaus design. It offers 16 dial colors, classic and compact layouts, and three movement styles including mechanical at 28,800 beats per hour, quartz, and digital. It includes burn in protection for OLED displays, day and night themes, and Apple notarized installation. One purchase covers up to three Macs.
Why Bauhaus Clock works
Default Mac screensavers are either generic photos or aggressive animations that feel out of place on a design oriented desk. Bauhaus Clock turns the idle screen into a deliberately styled object with multiple movement physics and OLED safe rendering, so the screensaver fits the same taste as the user's hardware and chairs.
Bauhaus Clock features
- Three movement styles. Mechanical at 28,800 beats per hour, quartz 1Hz tick, and smooth digital motion are selectable per user.
- 16 dial colors. Color options including Turquoise, Glacier, Salmon, Pistachio, Noir, and Cream let users match the screensaver to their workspace.
- Day and night themes. Themes switch automatically with specialized night lume colors for darker rooms.
- Burn in protection. Smart algorithms protect OLED displays during long idle periods.
- Multilingual support. The screensaver is available in ten languages.
- Apple notarized installer. Distribution is signed and notarized for clean macOS installation.
Who Bauhaus Clock is for
- Industrial and product designers who care about how their idle Mac looks on a shared studio desk.
- Mac users with OLED external displays who need a screensaver with burn in protection rather than a static image.
- Watch collectors and horology enthusiasts who notice the difference between mechanical and quartz beat rates on a dial.
