The 'Bespoke' Issue

With Guest Editor Yasmine Ghoniem, we are launched headfirst into the world of unique and eclectic design. From architecture to interiors, there is nothing that can’t be enlivened with bespoke interventions. Granted, a stunningly beautiful home can be made by simply shopping for the best, but when the artist’s hand is introduced, some pure magic is possible. Whether it is an artwork or a new upholstery, a built-in component or a mosaic inlay, these gestures, whether bold or subtle, are what make the home unique.

BeoSound 8

At the more affordable end of the Bang & Olufsen product line this
new speaker dock represents the unmistakable B&O style.

The BeoSound 8 is being touted as their first audio system made specifically for iPod, iPhone and iPad. With its two conical speakers, there’s little more to this new product, aside from the expected B&O quality.

You can, of course, connect your Apple portable device, but you can also connect wirelessly using Apple Airport Express to stream music straight from your PC.

The unit comes with a remote and can be controlled with one of B&O’s remotes (or control the volume with one of their telephones!). The company will soon be launching an App for streaming radio straight to your i-device.

BeoSound 8 can be wall-hung or placed anywhere in the home, with an acoustic adaptation switch for optimal sound quality no matter where you choose to rest it.

The BeoSound 8 comes with either black or white speaker covers, but you’ve got the option of buying coloured covers in yellow, green, purple and lavender blue for an additional $75 a pair.

You can pick one up for a RRP of $1,490
