# Chirping Time-Tellers The Bird Alarm Clock Offers a Simple Silhouette for Your Bedside Table By Meghan Young | Published 2010-12-17 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bird-alarm-clock References: [ohgizmo](http://www.ohgizmo.com/2010/12/15/chirping-bird-alarm-clock/) & [aplusrstore](http://aplusrstore.com/product.php?id=744) I don't know about you, but I often wake up to the sound of bird's chirping outside. This is how I know that I will never sleep through the Bird Alarm Clock, which wakes you up to the sound of birds chirping. Featuring a simple silhouette, it would make a great addition to any bedside table. Created by &Design in collaboration with Japanese firm IDEA International, the Bird Alarm Clock is available at the A+R Store for only $40. It comes in three colors: blue, pink and tan. Also, not only can stand on a table or hang on a wall, it also talks in either English or Japanese. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.8/10 - Popularity: 12% | Activity: 4% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Nature-inspired Alarm Clocks:** Opportunity to create more innovative alarm clocks that incorporate different sounds and natural elements. - **Multifunctional Alarm Clocks:** Opportunity to create alarm clocks that can be used in different ways, such as hanging on a wall or talking in different languages. - **Minimalist Bedside Table Accessories:** Opportunity to design other minimalist bedside accessories that complement the simple silhouette of the Bird Alarm Clock. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Home Decor:** As part of a larger trend in bedroom decor, the Bird Alarm Clock has opportunities for companies to create more nature-inspired and multifunctional home decor products. - **Consumer Electronics:** As a simple and affordable consumer electronic, the Bird Alarm Clock has potential for companies looking to create similarly priced products that offer a unique user experience. - **Gifts and Novelties:** With its simple design and unique user experience, the Bird Alarm Clock has potential as a gift or novelty item in stores that sell home accessories and gadgets. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Nature-Inspired Calming Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/whistle-speaker.md) - [Gentle Alarm Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arc-alarm-clock.md) - [Chic Circadian Rhythm Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hatch-restore-2.md) - [Digital Personality Alarm Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alarm-oclock.md) - [Charming Avian Door Chimes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/timbre-tori-door-chime.md) - [Elegant Aromatic Alarm Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paramita-universal-alarm-clock.md) - [Connected Toy-Like Alarm Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cubb-alarm-clock.md) - [Chic Modern Cuckoo Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modern-cuckoo-clock1.md) - [Rainbow Illumination Alarm Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alarm-clock-concept.md)
