MATERIAL Plastic, metal
MANUFACTURER Braun

The Braun RT20 is a compact table radio characterized by an extremely clear front surface and a controlled arrangement of its functional elements.

The speaker grille, tuning scale and controls are organized according to a strict visual hierarchy, making the operation of the radio immediately understandable.

Its simple geometry and absence of decorative details reflect Rams’ approach to industrial design as a discipline based on clarity, usefulness and visual order.
