How to Style a Modern Retro Clock
Modern retro clocks are at their best when they're allowed to be the focal point. A pumpkin orange or citrus yellow alarm clock on a white bedside table needs nothing else — the colour does the work. On a shelf or mantel, group a retro clock with books, plants, and natural objects for a curated, lived-in look. In a kitchen, a bold retro wall clock against white or sage cabinetry is a classic combination that never dates.
