With the rumored extinction of Compact Discs through the competition posed by MP3 players and other media sources, it’s no wonder why CD player manufacturers are starting to find new ways to make CDs and CD players more unique. YankoDesign has discovered one way to stir up consumers interest with the Square CD.

Designed in Italy, the Square CD is a touchscreen controlled CD player that is made to incorporate into the design of your house, acting as part of the decor. It blends in with your house design with its unique Corian surface (normally suited to kitchen counter tops), giving it a nice simplistic touch. When turned on, you are welcomed with a beautiful glowing screened play, stop and eject buttons.

The Square CD is not released as yet, but is rumored to cost well over $1,000 mark.
