For those homeowners who would like to spice up their interior design as much as possible, I suggest taking a look at decorative wall clocks. These are different than your typical fare, and they have a lot more flair. In the broadest sense of the term, "decorative" just refers to the intention to seize this opportunity to not just provide an easy way to tell the time from anywhere in a room, but to increase the ambience of the room. Whether it be in the kitchen, the family room, or elsewhere, this needn't be an expensive purchase. You will just have to spend a bit more in order to get something that was designed with a bit of class behind it.
Some people like the look of wood. I know that cherry is a popular style of decorative wall clock which is often used. This gives an older look and feel. It is more regal than a plastic or even a glass clock. Just make sure it matches the room in which it is going, or you will be out a bit of money with no return on it. Let the person with the best eye for design make the final decision on wooden decorative wall clocks so that this problem is avoided.
Another popular option in the wood category is solid oak. Obviously, the red is missing from the tint of this wood, but it is every bit as decorative as its predecessor. Again, this is a very regal choice, and will go best amongst a room which shares this sort of mood.
One specific designer who has distinguished himself through the creation of decorative wall clocks is Howard Miller. His clocks are quite popular if I do say so myself. He brings a real dignity to the manufacture of this essential piece of "wall art". He seems to really like to use wood and Roman numerals. It is definitely an ode to the earlier era of more dignified wall clocks.
Of course, you may wish to get a lot more adventurous with your wall clocks. In that case, I would probably branch out from the wooden ones. There are many companies making interesting use of various metals these days. They are able to thus create something entirely modern. This is probably my favorite type of wall clock of all that is available out there, except maybe for the old cuckoo clocks. These modern deco styles are very stylish, witty, and sharp. I would even say they are downright funky frequently. You don't really need a budget more than $50 to get in on some awesome pieces here, but if you expand your budget out to $100 then you are sure to be able to find exactly the type of decorative wall clocks that you are seeking. In fact, I'm sure you will find one (if you look long enough) that will hang on your wall for decades to come. The only thing limiting us here is really only the capacity of our own imaginations.
