Concept Development 13

The concept development phase

of the project consisted of working
out some of the final form factors

of the product, along with some of

the more detailed elements. Ensur-
ing that the influence of Marc

Newson and his chair design was

present in both the speaker and

headphone design, as well as en-
suring that none of Audio Techni-

ca’s desing style or ethos was lost

through the process. Particular at-
tention was paid to areas such as

the headphone connection point

between the speaker and the
headband, along with the connec-

tion point of the handle to the

main speaker body.
