section | wireless speaker
"with simple geometry, how can form + function = ONE?"
section explores function through the division of an object.
Two halves of a sphere split and rotate along a plane to reveal its function as a wireless speaker -
at the same time giving it a purposeful, static balance that it can never find on its own.
| tactile |
the rotating mechanism allows for the ditching of conventional remote control / buttons to turn it on/ off.
| light + motion |
accent light presence on both the exterior and interior gives visual rhythm coinciding with played music.
When not in use, section returns to its primitive shape.
In a state devoid of any function it becomes entirely sculptural , like a form without function.
Charging pedestal morphs to accommodate the contours of section.
Status of charge is reflected on the pedestal and product logo.
| Clarity + Opacity |
packaging is simple, clam shell plastic top and thick paper box - with a slight protrusion hinting a union of two geometries.
