Description from the seller

Philippe Starck for Alessi/Thomson – alarm clock radio 'Coo Coo', circa 1996

Rare design radio with alarm function, model 'Coo Coo', designed by Philippe Starck in collaboration with Alessi and Thomson in the 1990s.
The design combines a sleek, vertical architecture with a round clock face at the top. The minimalist styling is enhanced by the use of plastic and a simple hand design. The name 'Coo Coo' is a playful nod to the traditional cuckoo clock, translated into a contemporary and poetic design language.
