The Design

About Glistening Rhythm Speaker Bluetooth

Glistening Rhythm adalah speaker Bluetooth yang dirancang untuk penggunaan di atas meja, baik di rumah maupun di kantor. Selubungnya lebar di kedua ujung dan menyempit di bagian tengah, sebuah bentuk yang mengarahkan refleksi akustik sekaligus menciptakan titik fokus visual yang jelas. Bodi utamanya terbuat dari aluminium alloy melalui proses die casting dan pemesinan milling presisi, dengan permukaan yang dianodisasi dan dibrushed, sementara strip dekoratifnya dilapisi rose gold. Sebuah tombol putar bertekstur knurling di pusat visual mengendalikan volume dan mode pemutaran. Speaker ini berukuran 275 x 85 x 85 milimeter.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.

Unique Properties: This project is an all-in-one speaker design for desktop use. Through the interaction of the integrated shell and the central knob, it achieves optimized space utilization and enhanced visual recognition while ensuring high-fidelity sound output, thus balancing functional practicality and aesthetic expression.
Dimensions & Packaging: Measuring 275 mm x 85 mm x 85 mm, the manufacturing process of the main components of this product consists of injection molding, surface treatment, precision cutting, partial engraving and cleaning, as well as necessary assembly, welding, and surface polishing. The overall processing mode is relatively mature and the process is clear, without particularly stringent technical requirements for production equipment and technicians. This allows for a high degree of design freedom, enabling the flexible realization of its unique and exquisite appearance curves and details.
Tags: Integrated design, Innovative Structure, Understated Luxury Feel, Acoustic Optimization
Production Technology: The main body is made of aluminum alloy die casting and CNC precision milling. The surface is anodized and brushed. The decorative strip is made of zinc alloy electroplated with rose gold. The interactive knob is made of aluminum alloy knurled texture and silicone anti-slip top cap, with built-in light strip.
Design Challenge: Narrowing the cavity enhances visual recognition while compressing the acoustic space. The reflection path needs to be repeatedly optimized to balance the sound quality. The assembly of the complex curved surface of the all-metal casing and the rose-gold decorative strip places extremely high requirements on the process accuracy and consistency of die-casting, CNC machining, and different materials.
Research: This design focuses on the structural and aesthetic reconstruction of desktop speakers. It optimizes acoustic reflection paths through shell design and utilizes a one-piece die-casting process to reduce assembly steps. The research validates the synergistic relationship between form, acoustics, and manufacturing process, providing a replicable solution for lightweight and differentiated design of small speakers.
Inspiration: Inspired by the acoustic expansion logic of a vintage gramophone and the fluid curves of a modern sports car, the speaker enclosure is designed to be wide at both ends and narrow in the middle, enhancing acoustic reflection and creating a unique visual focal point. Brushed metal accents with rose gold echo the retro industrial feel, while the contrast between matte and glossy finishes conveys a futuristic and understated luxury. Furthermore, catering to users' refined needs for desktop space, the knob is placed at the visual center for intuitive one-button operation.
Project Duration: It will begin in Shenyang in January 2025, and the prototype will be completed and produced in June 2025, and then exhibited at the Lu Xun Academy of Fine Arts Museum in Shenyang.
Operation Flow: It is suitable for use in modern home and office scenarios. Placed on the TV cabinet in the living room or the desktop in the study, it can blend into the environment naturally. Users can adjust the volume and playback mode through the central knob. The operation is smooth and intuitive, and users can enjoy a convenient interactive experience when listening to music, watching movies or being immersed in games. The product is mainly made of matte aviation aluminum alloy and rose-gold PVD stainless steel. The cold metallic texture contrasts with the warm-toned decorative details, which not only shows a sense of technology but also adds a refined style to the space.
