Berlin Boombox is a cardboard stereo speaker with bold graphic and built in amplifier that can be connected to an iPhone or any mp3 player. Designed and developed by illustrator Axel Pfaender, this project combines Axel’s passions for music and graphic design. Axel built the first cardboard boombox for his personal use a couple of years ago. He soon received overwhelmingly positive feedback from everyone who had seen it, so he decided to go for it and turn it in to a real product.

You can follow the development of the Boombox here. You can also assist Axel in making this project a reality by visiting his Kickstarter page and placing a pre-order for your very own boombox.
