Das Unbekannte Hören
Coming soonArchive note
A German industrial design advertisement for an impossible porcelain speaker system from the early 1960s. The sculptural form—a biomorphic tower with dual speaker cones and visible vacuum tubes—suggests a collision between modernist audio engineering and organic ceramics. The typography and layout follow Swiss functionalism, yet the product itself exists nowhere in recorded consumer history. Likely appeals to collectors of speculative design, audio archaeology, and alternate industrial aesthetics.
