A wall clock is more than a timekeeper, it’s a statement of style, a focal point, and often the finishing touch that ties your living room together. Choosing the right wall clock can elevate your space from ordinary to exceptional.

What size wall clock do I need?
Start by thinking about scale. A large living room with generous wall space can carry a statement wall clock, something bold and eye-catching, like our Battersby wall clock - a large railway station wall clock with a classic Roman numeral dial. Smaller living rooms benefit from a more restrained design, such as our Echo Number Four wall clock in grey. This modern wall clock with a minimalist dial is perfect for paired back interiors where subtlety speaks volumes.
As a rule of thumb, leave some breathing space around the clock so it doesn’t overpower nearby artwork or shelves. Think of your clock as part of your wall’s composition, not just an addition.
What style of wall clock suits my interior?
Your wall clock should reflect your interior personality. For industrial style rooms, the Superstore wall clock with its polished chrome case and contrasting red and green hands is a natural choice. If you lean towards modern or mid century design, the Metro wall clock features softly curved edges, bold numerals, and a minimalist dial for retro charm. For a timeless, classic aesthetic, opt for a clean, monochrome face like the Mr Edwards, a versatile large wall clock that complements both traditional and contemporary homes.
Where should I hang my wall clock?
Position your wall clock where it can be appreciated. Above a mantelpiece, sofa, or sideboard works beautifully, creating a natural focal point. Make sure it’s hung at eye level for comfort and impact.
If your living room layout is open plan, consider visibility from multiple angles. A well placed wall clock can help define zones within a shared space.
