If you look carefully in each of Dittmar's projects, you'll see a few classically designed clocks — such as this antique from the 1800s — placed here and there. "I've had a fascination with clocks since I was a child," says Dittmar, "so I've incorporated them into many of the projects I've done." In fact, his love for clocks is so great, he did his entire room in a timepiece theme for the San Francisco Decorator Showcase in 2010.
