About this project

Flow Timer from Melbourne's Minimal Desk Setups is a solid-metal Pomodoro timer built for focus. In an era of endless notifications, it reclaims your attention with stubborn physicality: one twist of the machined metal body becomes the switch into flow. Dual customizable focus/break presets cover deep work and short rest rhythms, with five gentle alarm tones that remind without startling. The team spent 1.5 years refining it and gathered 3,900+ VIP pre-orders before launch. Launched in August 2025, it raised about AU$420,529 (≈$275K) against an AU$10,000 goal — roughly 4,205% funding from 3,936 backers.

✓Solid-metal tactility turns starting a focus session into a ritual
