BANG & OLUFSEN x ANTOLINI®

Explore the architecture of sound in outdoor spaces

Milan, April 16, 2026 - Bang & Olufsen and Antolini® present a new installation for Milan Design Week 2026, exploring the interplay between sound and design in shaping outdoor environments

Luxury indoor garden showroom by Bang & Olufsen and Antolini, featuring a reflective water feature and lush greenery.

The art of outdoor living

The installation reflects an approach where sound and material are conceived together-expanding the way environments are experienced, not only through what we see, but through what we hear and feel. The experience invites visitors to immerse in how sound, materials, and landscape can come together to form a new language for outdoor living and offers a preview of Bang & Olufsen's forthcoming landscape speaker, Beosound Haven.

Immersive sound and design

Key surfaces feature aluminium and Antolini®'s Taj Mahal® quartzite in a Matt finish, selected for its soft tonality and refined texture, enabling a subtle interplay between light, material and sound.

Seamless integration of design

At its core is Bang & Olufsen's belief in the seamless marriage of sound and design as an architectural layer, unfolding across floral and sculptural stone environments to shape perception and transform each space. Bang & Olufsen's precision-engineered aluminium engages with Antolini®'s refined natural stone, illustrating how sound, materials, and design can be considered from the earliest stages of spatial planning to create layered, immersive outdoor experiences.

Craftsmanship in dialogue

Through Bang & Olufsen's Atelier program, aluminium-the brand's signature material-is sculpted into Beosound Haven's distinctive sphere form and paired with Antolini®'s natural stone. Antolini®, a family-owned Italian company with 70 years of expertise in crafting marble and natural stone for architectural and design projects worldwide, brings a mastery of materiality that complements Bang & Olufsen's meticulous craftsmanship

Where sound and material converge

The result is a material composition where acoustic performance and design coexist seamlessly, illustrating how sound, design, and materiality work together to shape the perception of space. Antolini®'s natural stone surfaces frame the environment, creating texture, depth, and a tactile context that enhances the sound experience.

Material exploration

Selected natural stones are explored across the collaboration, each chosen for its distinct depth, pattern, and tactile quality, reinforcing stone as a primary architectural medium within the installation.
