Originally designing in the abstract and austere style of orthodox Modernism, in the late 1970s Michael Graves rejected this Modernist expression and began seeking a larger, Post-modernist vocabulary. Acclaimed for his ironic interpretation of traditional forms. It is this sensibility that has projected Graves to a star among designers, as can be seen in his many designs for Alessi that clearly depict a “new Americana.” The A09 Kitchen Timer as designed by Michael Graves is a wonderful classic piece that features many different finish/color options and is made from 18/10 stainless steel and ABS plastic with mechanical movement. It blends especially well with many coffee makers, cups, creamers and sugar bowls also designed by Michael Graves for Alessi.

Alessi's intention, from the beginning, was to be highly innovative and ready to experiment with cookware. With this in mind, the Alessi family venture explored new materials and novel design in becoming one of the finest and most well-known contemporary cookware brands. Alessi prides itself on its unique collaboration with designers and architects to produce beautiful, quality cookware. Among some of the best known of the Alessi's products are Richard Sapper's kettle with a two-tone whistle, Michael Graves' kettle with bird shaped whistle, and Philippe Starck's Juicy Salif citrus squeezer.
