O dizajnu Hotaru Gramofon

Spremenite svoj prostor s tem osupljivim gramofonom. Njegova lebdeča plošča brezhibno združuje zvok in svetlobo ter ustvarja poglobljeno čutno izkušnjo. Minimalistična kartuša in tonska roka zagotavljata brezhiben zvok in vizualno eleganco, medtem ko prikrit jermeni pogon podploščka minimalizira vibracije za popolno čistost zvoka. Izdelan iz prvovrstnega akrila, aluminija in medenine, ta sistem ne ponuja le izjemne kakovosti zvoka, ampak služi tudi kot osupljiv osrednji element v katerem koli prostoru.

Edinstvene lastnosti: This strikingly designed turntable features a floating platter that seamlessly integrates into any space, creating an atmosphere of harmony and depth. Its innovative design fuses sound and light for a captivating sensory experience. The minimalist cartridge and tonearm, paired with a concealed belt sub-platter drive, ensure both sonic clarity and visual elegance. Crafted from premium materials like acrylic, aluminum, and brass, the system delivers an unparalleled audio experience.
Dimenzije in embalaža: 430mm x 430mm 235mm
Oznake: analog, floating, turntable, record player, vinyl, music
Proizvodna tehnologija: The floating turntable, achieved through powerful magnetic repulsion, eliminates unwanted vibrations, unlocking the full potential of the cartridge. It also seamlessly blends function and aesthetics with a minimalist VM cartridge and carbon tonearm. Precision-crafted acrylic, a high-quality aluminum case with integrated speakers, and solid brass feet create a refined aesthetic. The meticulously engineered structure produces a depth and richness of sound that defies its compact size.
Oblikovalski izziv: The challenge was to make sure that the magnets used in the floating structure didn't affect the cartridge. This was especially important for cartridges, which contain strong magnets. If any magnetic energy leaked from the floating structure, it could directly lead to an unusual tracking force and sensitivity to movement. By using tools that analyze magnetic flux in product development and adding the right shielding materials to the case, we solved this problem.
Raziskave: Speaker-integrated turntables typically use rubber or springs for vibration damping. But this time we considered a method of suppressing vibration by using magnetic repulsion to float the turntable from the speaker. Through repeated prototyping and signal analysis, we realized to achieve effects greater than existing structures. Generally, vibration suppression structures are internal mechanisms, but through these studies, we succeeded in sublimating this mechanism into an external design.
Inspiracija: We envisioned a musical experience that transcends the ordinary. We believe that the moment of listening to an analog record holds the potential for more than just sound - it can be a captivating spectacle. With its floating analog record and ethereal glow, HOTARU is designed to stimulate the senses and create an immersive world where every moment becomes a cherished memory. This is our vision - to elevate the act of listening to an unforgettable sensory experience.
Trajanje projekta: The project started in December 2022 in Japan and will be exhibited in Milan Design Week in April 2025.
Potek delovanja: It is operated using three knobs.
The left knob selects the lighting mode, type, and brightness.
The center knob selects the turntable speed.
The right knob controls the speaker volume.
