The Future of Design

3 Days of Design Copenhagen 2024

For this year’s 3 Days of Design in Copenhagen, we explored the Art of Recreating, where we re-imagined Bang & Olufsen’s most recent design icons for the modern day. We invited select guests to our Indre By location to explore the intersection between past, present, and future through the art of recreating, and the emotional connections it generates.

The Art of Recreating - Design Week 2024

Bang & Olufsen unveils the esteemed Danish artist Kasper Eistrup’s recreation of the timeless Beosound A9 speaker for 3 Days of Design. This collaboration merges exceptional sound quality with artistic expression, resulting in a coveted piece for design and music enthusiasts alike.

Eistrup's artistic vision reimagines the Beosound A9's recognizable circular front. Envisioned as a painter's canvas, the speaker rests on elegant wooden legs, fostering a unique aesthetic that complements any modern space.

A Collaborative Masterpiece

Beyond the visual transformation, Eistrup actively participated in selecting materials and colors, infusing the design with his personal touch. The collaboration yields a distinctive copper ring framing the "canvas" and a bespoke color for the wooden legs.

This limited edition not only boasts exceptional design but also reflects Bang & Olufsen's commitment to enduring quality. The Beosound A9 platform is renowned for its longevity and upgradable technology, ensuring the sound experience remains unparalleled. Cacophonia embodies this philosophy, seamlessly integrating artistic expression with a timeless design.

2022: Music and Interiors

To highlight the importance of music and its ability to alter our mood, and even perception, Bang & Olufsen collaborated with Danish composer Kasper Bjørke to create four Nordic soundscapes inspired by Scandinavian nature to show how different atmospheres can change the perception of space. Upon entering Fritz Hansen's Pavilion, visitors were immersed in nature's elements and enter a meditative state that transcends both space and time.
