The idea
Your phone was never meant to sleep next to you.
We make objects for the edges of the day. A sphere of salt or stone that dims you toward sleep at night, then brings the light back slowly in the morning, the way the sun does. Nothing to download, nothing to scroll.
- 30-minute sunrise
- Birdsong & creek alarm
- Reading lamp
- Display turns fully off

“I’ve even naturally woken up a couple minutes before the alarm, just because of the gradual light.”
“The Rise Centered Original Sunrise Alarm Clock is by far the most beautiful clock we tested, with its handcrafted light orb made from Himalayan sea salt.”
“An art piece for my nightstand. I didn’t want my bedroom styled ‘tech-y.’”
“The simplest operation and setting of any sunrise alarm clock we tested.”
“It helps so much in the darker months to have a simulated sunrise.”

Materials
Salt, stone & wood.
Every sphere is carved by hand from a single block, so no two are alike. Lines, color and veining are part of the material, not flaws.
Why we exist
“Every sunrise clock I tried was plastic, came with a subscription, or needed an app. It felt like the opposite of what I was going for.”
It took three years and a dozen prototypes to make something that felt right: a screen-free alarm clock made from natural materials, for people who want to wake up a little more intentionally.
