Nobody enjoys being awakened by the unnatural sound of an alarm clock. British product designer Natalie Duckett has invented an alarm clock that mimics the natural sound of a woodpecker.

    yes, because woodpeckers are known to hammer on glass vases. I’d prefer it on wood.

    I am a firm believer in Organic Awakening, letting the body wake itself when ready. Anything else adds stress and is unhealthy. *wink*

    That wouldn’t cut it for me. That thing would have to throw the glass of water in my face to get me up.

    I still favor the bacon clock. Wake up to the delicious smell of cooking bacon right next to you, myes c:

    Not funny at all. Woodpeckers wake me up all the time, pecking on my house!!!!! This especially happens on a Saturday morning when I’m sleeping in.

    I already have a natural alarm clock… it’s called a newborn.

    I think this is a rather clever, cute and stylish alarm clock, and especially like that you can change the surface that it knocks on. I myself use my iPhone with a gentle chime I sampled from a lullaby to tell me when I should sleep.
