ClearFrame: CD as Canvas
The ClearFrame CD Player transforms the compact disc from retro relic into kinetic sculpture through transparent design that makes every spin visible. Encased in clear acrylic with exposed internals, it turns playback into visual performance where music, light, and motion converge as spatial experience.
Transparency without kitsch
Channeling iMac G3 and Game Boy Color nostalgia, ClearFrame speaks to generations rediscovering physical formats without sacrificing contemporary refinement. The integrated album art frame transforms sleeves into curated focal points, creating visual dialogue with emitted sound. Its tangibility evolved—where display meets ritual and hi-fi merges seamlessly with interior design language.
Object over optimization
Priced at $199, ClearFrame doesn’t compete with smart speakers on features—it outclasses them on presence. Wall-mount and tabletop modes, Bluetooth 5.1 connectivity, and swappable cover system integrate like art installation rather than audio equipment. LED display provides subtle interaction while maintaining the primacy of physical media as a design element.
Materiality reclaimed completely
In an era of invisible playlists and ephemeral streams, ClearFrame returns weight and form to music consumption. It proves that analog revival doesn’t require modern sensibility—just thoughtful integration of tactile ritual with spatial awareness.
When music becomes sculpture, listening transforms into exhibition.
