You are on a white velvet beach, walking by aquamarine crystal waters in front of the ruby-red setting sun. Your favorite music plays in the background. You pass a sculpted rock and on the other side you see a figure; your eyes meet, your heart starts beating faster. In your mind it is clear that you are in the presence of your soulmate; you hesitantly approach each other, your hands touch, your heads lean, and… the alarm clock goes off!!!
Now wouldn’t you need a clock that can take the beating? We introduce to you the “Smash,” a badass alarm clock with an angelic design. The top surface of this device is so designed as to accept your everyday punching and turn it into a harmless deformation. It better be tough enough, though, ‘cause I really don’t appreciate being drawn away from my lovely dreams.
What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Anger-proof Tech
- The trend of designing devices that can withstand everyday frustrations and anger and turn them into harmless objects, offering opportunities to innovate the way we engage with technology.

Sectors Adopting This
- Technology
- The technology industry can benefit from a deeper understanding of users’ emotions during product design, and could create anger-proof gadgets that cater to our early-morning temper and beyond.
- Sleep
- Industries that focus on sleep innovations, sleep supplements, mattress and bedding designs can leverage disruptive alarm clock technologies to improve customer experiences and meet growing demand in the market.
