Hidden Radio
Australian designer John Van Den Nieuwenhuizen, now based in San Francisco, sums up the intuitive nature of his Hidden Radio: “The product attempts to be silent both visually and functionally by having the cap in the downward position. By lifting up the cap the user proportionally increases the volume. The further the cap goes up the louder the sound gets. To tune the radio you simply rotate the cap and receive feedback of tuning quality via the LED on the front.”
Simple, good looking, easy to use, effective. It would be great to see a larger version too.
It's a shame so many of these beautiful designs never make it to production.
I was just wondering, what if you wanted to tune in to a particular station, 98.3fm or 99.1fm or something like that, because that's how people identify radio stations.
might need some kind of minimal interface after all.
