BLOCK Amplifier by Mateus Glowka

By Rain Noe - April 18, 2011

in Object Culture

Mateus Główka produced this bad-ass old-school-meets-new-school BLOCK hi-fi amplifier as one of his class projects while studying ID at Poland's Academy of Fine Arts. The BLOCK is made from stainless steel and aluminum, wears its tubes on its sleeve, so to speak, and features working electronics designed by collaborator Marian Kopecki.

One feature we thought was particularly cool: The soundboard tilts up on hinges so you can easily de-dust the thing. The BLOCK might use old-fashioned technology, but that doesn't mean it's designed to gather dust.
