Designer: Alex Underwood.
Features: Clad in an all-white garb, Speaker Buddies are a rather inspired creation. Alex Underwood wanted to pay homage to an often neglected material: Expanded Polystyrene, something that’s regarded as a no good material. Alex proves otherwise in an amusing design for speakers tagged Speaker Buddies. These speakers work in pairs and are depictions of child-like postures. Lightweight and easy to move around, Speaker Buddies are good enough to adorn any environment.
What’s Working: The material works as charm and allows for lightness that’s inherent to Speaker Buddies. In addition, EPS also allows exploration of a variety of color options.
Price and Availability: Recently displayed at the London Design Festival as a part of 100% Design, Speaker Buddies strike as something that’s yet to be commercialized.
