A classic by a designer with work in MoMA’s collection, reimagined in a bright pop of color.

MoMA Exclusive: The small analog Braun BC22 Alarm Clock is made for easy display at home or when you travel. It features an on/off continuous backlight which gives off a soft, warm glow when the clock detects darkness, and goes off when the room is light.

Why We Chose This
Several Braun designs are featured in MoMA's collection, celebrating a philosophy championed by legendary designer Dieter Rams. In 1964, MoMA staged the exhibition Two Design Programs: The Braun Company, Germany; The Chemex Corporation, USA, praising Braun’s "purity of shape and proportion... resulting in a product that is neat and unobtrusive." Grounded in Rams’ "10 Principles of Good Design"—which famously championed "less, but better"—Braun’s functional minimalism laid the groundwork for modern industrial design and deeply influenced contemporary tech companies like Apple.
