Not much to say about the TG 60, it speaks for itself. I wish more brands would go back to a more minimal, beautiful design aesthetic like this. Apple and Nest are starting that movement, but most companies still have a long way to go. I recently had an ADT security system installed in my home, and the components are hard to look at, especially the huge keypad next to my door. It’s a shame that most companies don’t value good design.
More Braun goodness at Das Programm.
you should also check the designs of NAD

their hifi equipment have that minimalistic feel about them as did a few others, just think they pulled it off better than most.
This is a beautiful design. Simplistic designs are so much more classic and their beauty lasts a lifetime.
One of NAD’s most significant designers was Reinhold Weiss. He was a student at the Ulm HfG, and worked at Braun for most of the 1960’s. I think he left in ’68/ ’69. No coincidence that NAD should come to mind…
