Meridiana Cuckoo Clock by Diamantini & Domeniconi

We've featured modern-day cuckoo clocks before, including the Striped Cuckoo Clock and the 21st century digital Cuckoo Clock. The Meridiana Cuckoo Clock by Diamantini & Domeniconi is also a modern twist on a classic, but does keep a good chunk of tradition intact.

Designed by Tarabay Souhail Pascal, it's shaped like a contemporary house, constructed in metal and with a clean white face and coloured frame. The cuckoo? Well, that comes out and sings in the hour - a light sensor keeping it quiet when darkness falls.

Choose from black or red, both selling for £175.
