In celebration of the first decade of Hong Kong’s reunification with China, the Hong Kong Design Center organized “Project 9707” to recognize Hong Kong’s local design industry and support design education. “Creation 9707” (part of the larger project 9707) is a collaboration of ten internationally renowned brand names with ten accomplished Hong Kong designers to produce ten creative products. KEF’s Stringless Pleasure is one of these ten. Developed in collaboration with Italian furniture brand Giorgetti and designer and architect Lo Chi Wing, Stringless Pleasure is an instrument without strings.
It is equipped with two concentric driver speakers, a subwoofer, CD player and built-in iPod dock. The cabinetry is made from Zitan, a rare species of wood used for musical instruments in ancient China, and the control dials are made from precious stones. The ten-decimeter long sound-bridge commemorates the ten years. Only ten Stringless Pleasures will be available worldwide.
