Design studio ZE123 Collective launches their clever and minimalist creation entitled the Filippo Speaker/Lamp. This simplistic pendant light accessory pairs sophisticated sound and lighting technologies together to create a memorable audio and visual experience for its users.

While it resembles a simplistic pendant light fixture at first glance, the Filippo Speaker/Lamp by ZE123 Collective features a built-in speaker that is discreetly disguised within its concrete shell. The neutral lamp comes with a height-adjustable cord that allows for its users to alter its aesthetic according to their desired length.

Moreover, these practical illuminator accessories are a great design solution for a public hospitality space such as a restaurant, hotel or nightclub or an innovative high-tech accessory that is displayed inside a gadget lover's home.
