The function of technology has become somewhat monotonized in that consumers simply expect advanced functionality and focus more on design aesthetic; this is the case with the 'Pavilion' Wireless Speaker & Acoustic System, which is packed with advanced technology, but hides it in a sleek frame.
Created by Hult Design, the 'Pavilion' Wireless Speaker & Acoustic System is inspired by the design of architecture and brass instruments, which is clearly evident in the sculpturally chic aesthetic that the device boasts. Regarding functionality, the 'Pavilion' Wireless Speaker & Acoustic System is capable of blasting music in a 360-degree fashion, which allows the small product to fill entire rooms without a second thought. Currently funding on Kickstarter, the speaker system features a concrete base and wooden accents.
