Modelled after outer space imagery, this [bluetooth speaker](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/orgdot-n200) boasts a circular design and a front face that is accented with glowing stars. These stars are not only eye-catching -- doubling as a decorative accent in any home -- but also act as the indicators of the speaker's built-in clock mechanism. Boasting a stunning and dual-purpose design, this [modular speaker](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/acoustic-sculpture-speaker) is made to resemble the cosmos it is named after. Jay Hyun Kim's creation allows for convenient Bluetooth connectivity and can even stream music via one's smartphone device, making it an essential piece of technology for summer parties that are hosted both at home or at a chic cottage. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.5/10 - Popularity: 36% | Activity: 30% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Modular Speaker Systems:** The 'Cosmos' speaker showcases the potential for speaker systems to not only provide high sound quality but also serve as decorative accents in homes. - **Cosmic-inspired Design:** The outer space imagery of the 'Cosmos' speaker highlights the trend of incorporating celestial aesthetics into consumer electronics. - **Convenient Bluetooth Connectivity:** The wireless streaming capabilities of the 'Cosmos' speaker exemplify the increasing demand for seamless Bluetooth integration in audio devices. ### Who This Affects Most - **Consumer Electronics:** The 'Cosmos' speaker demonstrates the potential for disruptive innovation in the consumer electronics industry by combining sophisticated design with advanced audio technology. - **Home Decor:** The decorative and visually appealing features of the 'Cosmos' speaker suggest opportunities for disruptive innovation in the home decor industry by integrating technology seamlessly into interior design. - **Music and Entertainment:** The 'Cosmos' speaker's capability to stream music via smartphones highlights the trend of disruptive innovation in the music and entertainment industry through the integration of cutting-edge audio technology. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Sci-Fi-Inspired Speaker Units](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gravastar-supernova-bluetooth-speaker.md) - [Space-Inspired Sound Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beosound-2-vollebak.md) - [Geometric Two-Part Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/conceptual-bluetooth-speaker-design.md) - [Acousto-Optic Smart Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smart-wireless-speaker-design.md) - [Angular Bluetooth Stereo Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bluetooth-stereo-speaker.md) - [Intergalactic-Inspired Lifestyle Products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spacio.md) - [Circular Wireless Portable Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aureola.md) - [Floating Spherical Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alex-casabo.md) - [Minimalist Metallic Speaker Units](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/suono-bluetooth-speaker.md)
