Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

This Pipe Speaker Features a Dynamic Visual Design

— September 14, 2015 — Tech
This pipe speaker features elements of both innovative functional design and sleek aesthetics.

The 'Sound Pipe' by Tao Design tries to differentiate itself with a bold twist on a familar concept. Firstly the speaker strays from conventional speaker design with its minimalist pipe-inspired design. The pipe is a fresh design with its organic and sensual curve -- instantly branding itself as something unconventional. The speaker's design is chic -- allowing for it to be used as a beautiful piece of decor based on its visually pleasing aesthetics.

The result of the pipe speaker's design is also that it has two outputs -- meaning that it is capable of multi-directional sound. The volume of the speaker is controlled through touch -- adjust it by sliding fingers along the pipe.
Trend Themes
1. Multi-directional Speakers - The Sound Pipe's unique design incorporates two outputs, offering an opportunity for disruptive innovation in the audio industry.
2. Minimialist Speaker Design - The Sound Pipe's chic and unconventional design opens up opportunities for innovation in the home decor and consumer electronics industries.
3. Touch-controlled Audio - The touch-controlled volume feature of the Sound Pipe presents an opportunity for disruptive innovation in the audio industry, particularly in home automation and smart home technology.
Industry Implications
1. Audio Equipment - The Sound Pipe's multi-directional design and touch controls suggest opportunities for innovation in the speaker and amplifier industry.
2. Home Decor - The Sound Pipe's chic and unconventional aesthetic presents opportunities for innovation in the home decor industry, particularly in the realm of functional decor.
3. Consumer Electronics - The Sound Pipe's minimalist design and touch controls suggest opportunities for innovation in the consumer electronics industry, particularly in the realm of home automation and smart home technology.
