As described by hoa shi design:
The Merry Go Round clock connects time and memory by Merry-Go-Round. “Happiness” is the immediate feeling; however, “the memory of happiness” will extend to the infinity as time goes by. We therefore insert the element of time in this carousel.

A boy's vigorous movement is the second hand. The minute hand symbolizes a mother, who company with her child continually.

The hour hand is like a father who steadily guards his family. The close relationships and interactions between them convert into the flow of time.
