Sony's Glass Sound Speakers Are Opulent, Innovative and Luminous
Taking mood lighting to the next level.
Sony’s Life Space UX initiative is dedicated to high-end design objects and products that fit into users’ homes; you may recall the lightbulb speaker that the company revealed a year ago. Now, the tech giant’s latest release is the Glass Sound Speaker—a wireless Bluetooth speaker built into an LED lantern. The design utilizes its cylindrical form to emit frequencies that closely resemble those of a human singing voice at the cost of some low-end output, that is. This is to say nothing of the speaker’s dimmable LED capabilities. Regardless, the product marks a merger of form and function, an elevation of design that landed the speakers a spot inside of New York’s MoMA Design Store this May. The speakers will retail for $800 USD a pop.
