One618 Omnee Wireless Speaker

Golden A' Design Award Winner 2024

This wireless speaker by designer Jurica Huljev employs cylindrical geometry as its primary formal strategy, a shape carrying profound symbolic resonance across cultural traditions where the circle and its three-dimensional expression the cylinder represent completeness, continuity, unity, and eternal return, the circular form suggesting wholeness without beginning or end, infinite rotation, and the cyclical nature of sound waves themselves radiating outward from source in concentric spherical expansion, the transparent band revealing the speaker driver's concentric ridges functions as visual manifestation of sound propagation patterns, translating invisible acoustic phenomena into visible geometric form and creating what might be understood as a mandala of technology, a centered geometric meditation on radial energy distribution, the designation "ONE.618" embedded in the product name references phi or the golden ratio, that mathematical proportion approximately 1.618 to 1 that appears throughout natural growth patterns, classical architectural proportions, and Renaissance compositional strategies, invoking ancient associations between mathematical harmony and perceptual beauty, suggesting that acoustic excellence and visual refinement share common proportional foundations, the number itself carrying mystical significance across esoteric traditions as the divine proportion allegedly embedded in the Parthenon, the human body, spiral galaxies, and nautilus shells, the cylindrical form elevated upon splayed legs creates a cruciform or X-shaped base structure when viewed from above, geometric configurations carrying symbolic weight as intersecting axes, the meeting point of horizontal and vertical, earthly and celestial, the four-legged support suggesting stability through quaternary division, the four cardinal directions, the four elements, the square of earthly manifestation supporting the circular perfection of the cylinder above, the charcoal gray coloration positions the speaker in neutral territory between the symbolic polarities of black and white, gray traditionally associated with sophistication, timelessness, technological modernity, professional restraint, and the elimination of chromatic distraction to focus attention on essential form, the transparency of the driver membrane window carries contemporary symbolic significance as material honesty and technical disclosure, the cultural value placed upon revealing rather than concealing mechanisms, understanding rather than mystification, this transparency suggesting integrity, openness, confidence in engineering excellence, inviting the user into partnership through visual access to functional components, the architectural context within which the speaker appears photographed creates layered symbolic readings as the spiral form represents growth, evolution, expansion, the journey inward or outward, the labyrinth, the cochlea of the inner ear itself that translates sound vibrations into neural signals, positioning an audio device within spiral architecture creates productive symbolic resonance between container and contained, between the speaker that generates sound and the spiral that might amplify or channel acoustic energy, the monumental scale of the architectural environment dwarfing the modest speaker suggests themes of human agency within vast systems, the portable and personal within the institutional and collective, the domestication of public space through intimate technology, the democratic accessibility of high-quality audio reproduction that once required dedicated acoustic architecture and now fits within hand-carried cylindrical forms, the elevation of the speaker upon legs rather than resting directly on ground plane suggests ritual presentation, the displayed object, the offering, the speaker as sculptural artifact worthy of spatial breathing room and considered viewing, the white architectural bands and black recessed zones create strong value contrast traditionally associated with dualities, light and shadow, revelation and mystery, the known and unknown, while the warm golden accent lighting introduces associations with hospitality, welcome, domestic comfort, hearth warmth, suggesting that even grand institutional spaces can be humanized through lighting strategies that reference residential intimacy, the geometric skylight framework visible overhead suggests transparency to natural forces, connection between interior and exterior, the filtering and framing of celestial light, the marriage of shelter and openness, the speaker's minimalist formal vocabulary aligns with broader cultural values privileging essential form over decorative excess, suggesting clarity, honesty, respect for user intelligence, confidence in functional beauty, the absence of applied ornament allowing material and proportion to communicate aesthetic achievement, this restraint itself carrying symbolic weight within design discourse as evidence of refinement, maturity, and timeless rather than fashionable aspirations, considered together these symbolic dimensions construct an audio device positioned at the intersection of mathematical harmony, acoustic science, sculptural presence, and domestic ritual, a technological object that transcends mere functionality to propose itself as aesthetic companion, conversation piece, and embodiment of design philosophy valuing proportion, material integrity, geometric purity, and the integration of human-scaled intimate technology within the broader architectural and spatial experiences of contemporary life.

An indoor and outdoor omnidirectional concrete wireless speaker with a built-in amplifier and powerful batteries. It streams music from any source anywhere and emits sound 360 degrees, creating an ultra-wide listening area. Concrete enhances the sound quality and provides a unique visual and tactile appeal. The speaker harmonizes form and function, inspired by the golden ratio and the Fibonacci sequence. It stands out for its design, versatility, quality, and natural and clear sound reproduction. It can be paired with more speakers to create a continuous immersive audio image.
