About
Handmade clock inspired by space exploration

Helio was created with a team of 4 as part of an ambitious MIT manufacturing project. In just 8 weeks our team designed, prototyped, hand-manufactured and sold 50 clocks. Through that process, we donated $2,000 of our profits to Science Club for Girls (with a generous match from Google).
