The conceptual 'FAKES' speaker is an architecturally inspired technology solution that calls to mind an urban metropolis to play music or audio content in a design-conscious manner. The speaker is achieved with anodized aluminum material and features a grille that calls to mind the steel beams that usually grace the exterior of skyscrapers in urban areas. The controls for the speaker are integrated into the ridges of the speaker to hide them when it's not in use to add a further sense of cohesion for users.
The conceptual 'FAKES' speaker is the design work of Jaeyong Lee of Weekend-Works and can be positioned in a living space as an homage to urban architecture that will draw attention with its demure aesthetic.
