Art on Loudspeakers

March 28th, 2010

Elac Art-Edition speakersArt was considered something far away from everyday life,  but after years now, we pursue artful life! We love art and want our life to be elegant and beautiful, so we buy artful things to decorate our home so as to show our taste. Loudspeaker’s the last thing I would relate with art, I’ve seen elegant ones, but no artful one ever, but yet life surprises me again! Elac just unveiled its Art-Edition speakers for connoisseurs!

High-end audio is turning into art with now more attention paid to the design and finish of the cabinet besides the specs. Elac, the German audio manufacturer, has launched its Art-Edition loudspeakers at IFA, which are real design pieces with high gloss finish and attractive decorative motifs to complement plush interiors. The art series loudspeakers feature “decoration tattoos,” the foils are tissue-thin, UV-resistant and protect against scratches or water and are very durable. Depending on your personal style, you can select from tone-in-tone solutions, such as white matte motifs on high gloss white surfaces, or if you prefer a high-contrast staging can select for silver or dark gray tattoos on white high gloss or titan shadow speakers. And if the motifs no longer fit into your style, the tattoos can be removed. The highlight of the collection is a limited edition of their successful model FS 247 in the “De Stijl dress” which is inspired from the painter Piet Mondrian ELAC.

These extravagant speakers will appeal to wealthy music lovers and design connoisseurs alike, for whom exclusivity outweighs everything else. Really stunning, they truly will become the light spot in your house and totally show your high taste! Fantastic.

Platinum Nissan Z432 for Tomica’s 40th Anniversary

March 14th, 2010

platinum Nissan Fairlady Z432 for Tomica from Ginza TanakaWe all love cars to some extent, since we can’t buy many cars, toy cars become very popular with both children and adults. They’re quite adorable, and it’s really exciting to have so many cars we like! Among all these nice toy cars out there, this one must be the most exquisite and luxury one, it is actually a gift for Tomic’ 40th anniversary from Ginza Tanaka.

In horner of Tomica’s 40th anniversary, jeweler Ginza Tanaka dedicates itself to offer a one-of-a-kind replica of the toymaker’s die-cast 1970 Nissan Fairlady Z432. Demonstrating its artistic force, Ginza Tanaka with its blinged design sense has faithfully replicated the Z432 in platinum. Featuring the opening doors and the wheels that can spin (very gorgeous), the platinum Z432 is 7cm long and weighs 210 grams.

Well, how’s it look? I think this is the one toy car that will really make me scream like it’s a real one! And if it were to be made available for purchase (which it isn’t), it’s estimated worth is about $80,000. Even though, Japanese Nostalgic Car still jokes in its headline that even at that price, still cheaper than the real thing. As for this platinum gorgeous bauble, it’s being publicly shown at the Hong Kong International Jewelery Show this month.
