“The indoor climate is all-important to our well-being. One aspect is light. Another factor is air quality. But equally important are the acoustics, as they impact us on both a physical and psychological level.”

Every audio brand under the sun likes to claim that their products seamlessly blend form and function, but the BeoSound Shape are quite unlike anything we’ve seen before.At first glance the sound system looks like an art installation. It’s a clust er of hexagonal tiles, arranged as you see fit to achieve a balance of cost, sound-quality, and wall space that suits your wall, and that acts as a speaker to fill your house with sound
