Give different functions a shared form

Bang & Olufsen’s Beosound Shape combines hexagonal speaker, amplifier and acoustic-damper modules. A configuration determines the arrangement and functional mix of tiles, rather than making every visible tile a speaker.

From adding a sound object to composing sound functions into the room.

The arrangement is part of the product

Our reading: adding music and improving the way a room handles sound are usually separate purchases. Shape brings them into one spatial design problem. The wall composition is not simply decoration placed over equipment: its modules can perform different jobs within the same visual language.
