“Trio” is a new kind of musical instrument that combines analog and digital, making them accessible even for people with no musical background.
The series itself was built with the idea of later developing and expanding it into a wider variety of instruments. This will allow users to create a broad range of sounds and even assemble an entire band.
The operating mechanism’s form is kept constant throughout the series, designed in such a way that once you have learned to play one instrument, you can play them all.
The products synchronize and communicate with one another, thus maintaining harmony.
Percussion instruments provided both the material inspiration for the design (wood and metal) and the formal inspiration (a rounded form symbolizing the cyclicality of the instrument and the playing of it).
The products contain electronic content created in accordance with the design process.Materials and techniques: woodturning, plastic, hardware, electronics
