The router has become an essential piece of technology in the home but hasn't changed much in terms of aesthetics to help make it less intrusive, which is something the conceptual Piano WiFi 6 router has been designed to change.
The router is characterized by its white base that is paired with a series of four black antennas that can be folded outwards to her enhance signal strength. When the antennas are folded down they help to make the router appear as a piano-like unit that will no doubt draw attention and help to make it less intrusive in a space.
The conceptual Piano WiFi 6 router is the design work of Lee Haupenn and is the winner of the 2020 Red Dot Design Best of the Best award.
