6:20am. Your excruciatingly painful alarm goes off after haphazardly flailing your arm over to hit snooze for the 3rd time, and you think to yourself, “Man, I wish I had coffee ready and waiting for me.”
Enter The Barisieur by British designer Joshua Renouf, which fuses coffee maker with clock radio. What’s so special about it? For starters, The Barisieur sits on your nightstand, right next to your bed so you can roll over and immediately get your caffeine fix.
And, rather than a blaring siren firing at you, commanding abrupt wakefulness, the alarm “eases the user into the day with the subtle movement of stainless steel ball bearings that boil the water through induction heating.” And then, the glorious aroma of freshly brewed coffee peacefully tides your senses to alertness.
In addition to its exceptional handiness, The Barisieur also features a stunning design, worthy of the swankiest, ultra lux pad, but also easily transitioned into any décor with clean lines, dark chocolate wood, stainless steel, and glass instruments.
Renouf states:
“[The Barisieur] encourages a ritual before going to sleep, asking them to prep the beans, sugar and milk for the next day’s use, subliminally signaling to the body and mind that it’s time to relax.”
