The user experience when it comes to technology products is constantly being rethought and changed to suit changing preferences, which has led to the creation of the 'MarshMallow' speaker. The technology product has a somewhat [cushy design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aura-speaker) that is soft and padded, while the top portion allows users to depress the [soft fabric](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soft-lamp) to turn it on and off. This provides a more sensory experience that will be well-received by anyone who would prefer a focus that strays from the usual harness that is observed with technology products.

The 'MarshMallow' speaker is the design work of Jeongchun Lee and will provide a [satisfying user experience](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/audio-pro-t3-jepson-edition) that will be admired for its attention to softness and fitting well into your existing technology device roster.
