LEXON | Radio | Tykho 2 LA100VC8 Mint

Tykho 2 AM/FM radio LA100VC8 with mint rubber cover

The Tykho Radio is a design icon and a great example how form and functionality can work harmoniously together. The water green or mint rubber radio is entirely encased in a silicone cover which makes it splash-proof. This allows the use in the bathroom, in kitchen work areas and as outdoor radio on the beach or by the pool. The rotating antenna doubles as station tuner for frequency search. From the Lexon range it has won the most design awards, it is part of the permanent New York MoMA collection and chosen by the Pompidou Centre Paris as one of only 2 objects that signify the 1985 – 2000 period.
