BANG & OLUFSEN'S ICONIC DESIGN RE-DESIGNED

As part of the Art of the A9 project, art and music come together with the designs made on these special canvas covers produced in limited numbers.

Music meets art

The iconic music design that you can display anywhere with its circular design, Beosound A9, is celebrating its 10th anniversary with the “Art of A9” project, which is carried out with distinguished designers from many countries around the world. By applying their designs to the circular canvas of Beosound A9, the artists are reinterpreting this unique speaker as a work of art. Within the scope of the “Art of A9” project, art and music come together with the designs they make on these special canvas covers, which will be produced in limited numbers.

Erdem Akan

Erdem Akan is an award-winning designer born and raised in Istanbul. Erdem is also an art director, curator and teacher. Instead of producing work in a certain style, Erdem Akan is guided by ideas and creativity on the path to design. He is inspired by working on cliché ideas, the contrast between disciplines and cultures and the contradictions that this situation often creates. In this design, Erdem Akan has combined the Iznik motifs that the Tile Master Salih Sarıçam has brought from the 16th century to the present with music.

Deniz Salaçin Erciyas

Deniz Salaçin Erciyas is an illustrator from Istanbul and she often works with everyday objects to turn them into bright designs. Deniz Salaçin Erciyas started her design journey by personalizing objects for her friends and loved ones. The impulse that inspires Deniz is "to create something different in this world where everyone and everything is alike, to allow people to find their own unique color and originality, to remind them that they are unique; to create designs with a soul". Deniz Salaçin Erciyas talks about her inspiration with "simplicity, colors, shapes, patterns in nature and the abstract expression that nature makes her feel" and states that she adopts the spontaneous in her works rather than sticking to a predetermined plan.

Getting lost in colors, finding new meanings among shapes, thinking about what people will feel when they see this design, and actually inviting everyone to the freedom I feel in this world is like being in another universe.
