The Giacinto leather speakers are a sound system that comes in a flat-pack design, allowing consumers to put together the multimedia device themselves. The speakers are unconventionally made from fabric rather than solid material such as plastic, metal or wood giving the devices a softer and customized aesthetic.
While most speakers come in a static and pre-made shape, the Giacinto sound system comes in pieces that the consumer puts together at home. The exterior is made from supple brown leather that clips together with tabs to assemble into a triangular shape. A mesh audio speaker where the music is broadcasted from is integrated into the leather.
The speakers can easily be taken a part and reset to be transported to new locations. The design is available in a variety of colors as well, for added style.
