Part toy, part media device, the ‘Rolzy’ interactive radio from Dutch design firm Leeuw & Vormgeving isn’t your ordinary radio.
The ‘Rolzy’ interactive radio has an integrated wheel that you would roll to switch on. Then, you can move the radio back and forth to increase and decrease the volume. Perfect for children and adults, the Rolzy resembles a wooden toy car (or a block of cheese) and also features two buttons that can navigate through radio channel frequencies.
