Entered into the 2025 Design Awards

Antonio says "We are very pleased to send you information about one of our recent sundials, commemorating the centenary of the visit of Einstein to our city.

Basically it consists of two very accurate sundials (the morning dial is almost exact) inspired by the values and principles of Einstein as a scientist and as a person. The sundial represents the Special Theory of Relativity. And by the sundial there is a panel with detailed information and directions of use, that symbolises the General Theory of Relativity.

It was inaugurated in 2023."

There is a fascinating PDF with full details of the dial, how it works and some additional pictures of the construction. Open the PDF here.
