Exploring the sensibilities of a material and researching its historical context can lead to an innovative use in a new product. Ceramic is known for its properties of acoustic resonance, and this natural feature should be utilized in the products created from it. Capella uses a simplistic approach to the basic physics related to sound. It is a kitchen timer.
