Der Unbekannte Klang
Coming soonArchive note
German design advertisement for a high-fidelity audio system, circa 1960s–70s. The poster presents porcelain and glass sculptures alongside wood-grain speakers and a cream-colored amplifier, positioning sound as a tangible, sculptural experience. The headline translates to 'The Unknown Sound,' suggesting an aspirational audio culture that never quite materialized in the documented record. Collectors of midcentury design ephemera and alternate industrial histories.
