Occationally, we have internal workshops to improve our processes and to try out new methods. For this workshop we had three days. One common theme was presented each day but individual brainstorming and potential identification was encouraged.
Also the modelling and rendering tools were pre-defined as well as the final presentation format. Hence highspeed-visualisation skills and an anti-critical mindset were mandatory.
#1 / Brand / Wallsticker speaker. Tame gravity and co-create the speaker of your dreams. Easily exchangeable by the click-swap fitting.
#2 / Brand / Freestyle your sound with Burton brand inspired snowboard speakers.
#3 / Personality / Powertool! A robust and youthful design inspired by men and their toolbox.
#4 / Personality / Portable MP3 speaker. Flexible hanger for sharing your favourite hits!
#5 / Architecture / Utzon's Sydney Opera House inspired speaker.
#6 / Architecture / Calatrava. A manifestation of high-tech technology and engineering.
#7 / Architecture / Star base shape. Slim and sleek audio column.
#8 / Architecture / Turning torso speakers. Inspired by Malmo´s high-rise colossus.
#9 / Brand / Jam Jar speaker inspired by IKEA. Make good use of your old glass jars - turn them into speakers.
#10 / Brand / Surround system inspired by Audi´s logo. Place the wireless "doughnuts" individually for enhancing your movie experience.
#11 / Personality / Organic speaker inspired by Munthe plus Simonsens feminine style.. and a womans body.
#12 / Brand / Move the units individually to adjust the height and configure your own sound. The frames can also be used for storing CDs.
#13 / Brand / The HTC-like facetted baffle and randomly placed units give a very characteristic expression.
#14 / Brand / Inspired by sound waves, this speaker expands like an accordion when playing.
#15 / Personality / Concrete and acrylic coated with asphalt for improving the acoustics - sophisticated heavy-duty speakers.
#16 / Personality / Tactile music for hearing impaired. The ball pulses in time with the music, adding an extra feature for your senses.
#17 / Personality / Portable clamshell speakers for travelling. Use them with a laptop or MP3 player when you´re on-the-move.
#18 / Personality / Watch out for the clones! Visible units, large spikes and a shield-like main body - all inspired by Star Wars robots.
#19 / Personality / Cocoon speaker. Interact with your sound system by turning the sculptural and organic veneer shell.
#20 / Personality / Pass the Pigs! An ancient viking game translated into a fun speaker concept for kids. The more the merrier!

Hello.
We're very pleased to receive the positive response from you. However, the products visualized on this page are only concepts and ideas for potential products. So unfortunately you'll not be able to acquire any of the products. Also - technologywise they're not completely developed.

But we're happy to see your comments :)

Hi art and design student :)
The Body speaker was inspired by the Danish fashion brand - Munthe plus Simonsen. Their style is very feminine and Scandinavian - but also quite bold and expressive! The curves from a womans body have also been an important source of inspiration.
