MoMA House Black Modern Cuckoo Clock

The MoMA House Black is a modern cuckoo clock designed for contemporary interiors. The house-shaped silhouette and matte black finish create a strong, balanced presence that works naturally in living rooms, kitchens, studios, and offices.

Originally developed for the MoMA Design Store, this modern cuckoo clock simplifies the traditional cuckoo clock into a clean, architectural form. The design removes ornamentation and focuses on proportion, structure, and contrast.

Each hour, the cuckoo bird appears from the opening with a short chirp, bringing the familiar rhythm of a traditional cuckoo clock into a modern setting.

The flat base allows the modern cuckoo clock to stand securely on a shelf, console, or desk, while also supporting wall mounting depending on the space.

Part of the modern cuckoo clock collection, this clock is designed for flexible placement and integration into everyday interiors.
