Light Speaker

This is a beautiful new product from the team at Transparent. They make beautiful speakers, that are meticulously engineered, and that sounds great. They are also the only company in the consumer electronics space (that I know) who has truly adopted a circular design philosophy. Their products are built to be easily upgraded and fixed. For this new product, they created a light element that uses the subwoofer to create natural flame like illumination. Excited to see this come to life, and to get my hands on one of these.

I've had the pleasure of knowing Martin and the transparent team for years, they have spoken at various startup conference I have run. When I heard they where launching something new I got very excited. I'm always super impressed by their design and the care for the small details. Their approach to making products last longer to save natural resources is also great. @martinwillers what inspired you to do a product that looks like a lantern?

Hi @jasondainter thanks so much for posting us! We where looking to find and iconic function around the home that would stand the test of time. In the Swedish archipelago, many people has kept their lanterns for generations. Could we do a modern take that would last that long? We needed to make the light as natural as a real flame but a little bit more magical by making it follow the music in a subtle way. And off-course the sound had to be great. Finally, but most challenging: It needed to be made in durable materials and completely modular so all parts can be repaired and last a life-time. The single most important thing we, as a company, can do to reduce emissions and save natural resources is extend the life time of consumer electronics!

This team are sound nerds first and design fanatics second. I had the pleasure to meet the founders and team many times and am in awe. This is genius.
