Six of the most important pairs of basketball shoes sported during the illustrious career of Michael Jordan went for a whopping US$8 million (about HK$62.5 million) at a Sotheby’s sale in New York last month. The astonishing figure represents the global auction record for game-worn sneakers and the second- highest amount raised for items linked to the Chicago Bulls superstar.



<div style="height:15px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



Jordan wore these six individual pairs of Air Jordans when he was playing some of the most important games of his career – namely, the finals of his six-career National Basketball Association (NBA) championships from 1991-1993 and 1996-1998. Commenting on this remarkable six-piece lot – dubbed the Michael Jordan ‘Dynasty Collection’ by the auction house – Sotheby’s Head of Modern Collectables Brahm Wachter said: “A truly unparalleled moment and milestone in auction history, the sale of these six championship- clinching sneakers will likely never be replicated.”



<div style="height:15px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



The largest sum accumulated for an auction item from the basketball legend’s catalogue of used sportswear was US$10.1 million, which secured his No. 23 jersey from the 1998 NBA Finals of his ‘Last Dance’ season.

The last privately owned gilt copper alloy figure of Virupaksha, the Buddhist Guardian of the West, caused a stir at a recent auction held in Hong Kong by Bonhams. This early 15th-century figure from the Densatil Monastery in Tibet, measuring an impressive 73 centimetres high, eventually went for HK$37.9 million (about US$4.86 million).



<div style="height:15px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



This huge price attained for a figure of Virupaksha, regarded as one of the Four Heavenly Kings, partly reflected the fact that the other three similar sculptures are all now residing in world-class museums – the Capital Museum in Beijing, the Palace Museum in Taipei, and Paris’s Guimet Museum. It is thought the sculpture was crafted when the noble clan ruling central Tibet and officiating at Densatil were at the height of their regal powers.



<div style="height:15px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



Edward Wilkinson, Global Head of Himalayan, Indian and Southeast Asian Art at Bonhams said: “As the only guardian from Densatil in private hands, as well as the largest and most engaging sculpture from Densatil, this was a once-in-a-generation opportunity to secure one of the greatest icons of Tibetan art. We are therefore thrilled, but not surprised, that it fetched the top price it deserves.”



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Floral Fantasy: Kusama’s bold Flower blooms at auction</h3>


<div class="wp-block-image">

A floral painting by Yayoi Kusama, who is renowned for her deep affection for flowers as well as pumpkins and polka dots, delighted the Christie’s salesroom in Hong Kong so much that it garnered the second-highest auction price for the much-loved Japanese artist. The final sum for the 2014 work, called simply A Flower, topped HK$78 million (about US$10 million), a figure that is also greater than the HK$58.5 million attained for another floral work by the same artist at Christie’s the previous season.



<div style="height:15px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



Interestingly, Kusama’s life-long fascination with flowers began following a terrifying experience in childhood. She had a sudden, disturbing vision that she was surrounded by hundreds of flowers in a garden and they appeared to be chatting among themselves as if they had taken on human personas. This early moment of distress mushroomed into an illusory fantasy based around flowers and influenced her canon of work over several decades.



<div style="height:15px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



A vivid and bold piece with polka-dot motifs created when the artist was in her mid-80s, A Flower displays depth and appreciation of the subtle influence of changes of colour akin to the division and reproduction of cells in nature.

The very first and the very last production Corvette L88 were offered together under one lot by Mecum Auctions at its recent sale in Kissimmee, Florida, resulting in much excitement and a mightily impressive winning bid of US$2.58 million (about HK$20.18 million). Equipped with muscular engines, the two classic Chevrolet ‘dream cars’ were used to turning heads when they hit the US racetracks in the late 1960s and winning awards thereafter.



<div style="height:15px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



The oldest model, a 1967 Convertible, is widely known as the very first production Corvette L88 and also has the distinction of being the only L88 Convertible to be painted Tuxedo Black. Its noteworthy racing career included being driven by Tony DeLorenzo and Jerry Thompson, and finishing second in the 1967 Daytona Beach SCCA runoffs. The accolades continued in later life, as it achieved Bloomington Gold certification, numerous NCRS (National Corvette Restorers Society) Top Flight wins and the NCRS Heritage award in 2013.



<div style="height:15px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



The last documented model of the line was manufactured on 4 December 1969. The 1969 Coupe was finished in the famous Corvette factory colour of Fathom Green.

The living room exudes elegance and comfort, making it the perfect space for relaxation and socialising. The design concept harmoniously balances aesthetics and functionality, with soothing neutral tones such as beige and cream interspersed with pops of dark colour in accent pieces that add visual interest and intriguing contrasts.



<div style="height:15px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



The lounge has ample space for family and guests to unwind. It features a large, plush sectional sofa with a round coffee table which breaks the monotony of angles. A wide bar runs parallel to the sofa while the dining space is at its back, making the living room a multipurpose area especially suitable for large gatherings. Tall windows permit natural light to flood in and provide stunning vistas to those chilling within; a balcony lets residents get even closer to the outside spectacle.

The bar boasts a white marble wall and a marble kitchen island with a statement lighting fixture hanging above it. A delicate white-frosted glass chandelier atop the dining table also serves to accentuate the beauty of the entire lounge.



<div style="height:15px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



A see-through glass frame next to the dining area visually connects the hallway leading to the master bedroom. Tall pots of plants punctuate every space hinting at the owner’s love of natural beauty.

The master bedroom follows a minimalistic theme, emphasising only the essentials of the space. Storage is on the side, adding further functionality and freedom from clutter. Wide windows open onto a balcony with spectacular views of the ocean and the nearby islands. The en suite plays a game of contrasts as its black marble floor and walls are at variance with the white and gold fixtures.

The daughters share a bedroom where two adjacent single beds make a cosy space for sisterhood to bloom. Facing the beds is a feature wall with a widescreen television for the girls to relish movie nights in their beds. Pink headboards and bright colours give the room a hint of feminine energy, and the same colour palette can be seen in their bathroom.

The son’s room is designed to function both as a play area and a bedroom. A mezzanine has been added to distinguish the spaces, the lower floor being designated for toys and games.

A capacious study with two separate tables enables the youngsters to delve into their homework undistracted. Next to it is a brightly appointed guest room. Like all the bedrooms, the guest room also features a television for everyone to enjoy their own entertainment.

The Vintage Grail Holiday Gift Guide – Making your Christmas wishes come true

Hong Kong International Optical Fair

At the end of every single day, people desire to hit the bed and get a good night’s sleep. Sometimes, during a busy day at work, it is all we are looking forward to. Dorelan surely understands this and has built a reputation for making high-quality beds that help people sleep better. The brand takes every step and effort to ensure that anyone who sleeps on their bed has better sleep efficiency. In fact, their customers’ wellness is a top priority for them.
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-70865" src="https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Ragazza_pag14-e1681459908615.jpg" alt="" width="768" height="512">
They achieve this by manufacturing all their beds in Italy and handpicking only the finest raw materials that are thoroughly checked ensuring that the final products boast a phenomenal quality.
Particularly, the craftsmanship of each bed follows the highest professional standards while combining the aesthetic appeal of art and scientifically backed and researched state-of-the-art techniques thus making sure that even their demanding customers end up truly appreciating their creations. More importantly, Dorelan maintains this standard by continuously researching and developing its products to an even better one.
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-70863" src="https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/darron-generale-e1681459952768.jpeg" alt="" width="768" height="513">
In fact, cruises, hotels and boutiques understand and trust the Dorelan beds to the point that more than ten thousand organisations from the cruise and hotelier world continue to use their products. As much as the hospitality industry wants its guests to be satisfied and relaxed during their experience, Dorelan also wishes the same.

The brand also pays extra attention to the environment by sticking to eco-friendly ways of manufacturing. For instance, as of January 2019, Dorelan has only used electricity that was generated from renewable sources. They have also stuck to circular production by reusing nearly 50 per cent of their waste from the previous year.

Danish design company Normann Copenhagen takes pride in creating visually appealing furniture pieces that are also very ergonomic and practical. For its Spring 2023 collection, the brand has launched tables, chairs, lights, sofas, and other home products. For the brand’s future direction, it is only expected to get more premium and innovative with its original designs.
While we cannot wait to see all the fantastic contemporary designs that are yet to come, for now, let’s focus on some of the fabulous pieces from Normann Copenhagen’s Spring 2023 line.
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="aligncenter wp-image-70822 size-full" src="https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/2022_Drape_Lounge_Chair_High_W_Headrest_Oak_Ultra_Leather_Brandy_41574_Ultra_Camel_41571_Jalousi_Sideboard_Grey_Eddy_Table_Lamp_Grey-e1681368289330.jpg" alt="Normann Copenhagen" width="500" height="677">
Drape comes in two forms – Lounge Chair High and Lounge Chair Low. While the Lounge Chair High has an additional headrest allowing for more head-and-neck support, the latter looks more simple yet sleek.
Drape comes in different colours and fabrics, while also letting people choose between steel or oak legs. Whatever option you pick, every Drape chair boasts elegance and comfort with its soft curves and the brand’s precision in every detail of the design.
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="aligncenter wp-image-70821 size-full" src="https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/2022_Ark_Modular_Sofa_3_Seater_Black_Steel_Ultra-leather_41571_02-e1681368348221.jpg" alt="Normann Copenhagen" width="768" height="552">
Ark is the brand’s retake on modular sofa design. Ark has both high-density and low-density foam incorporated in the design to allow for a cosier sitting.
Its minimalist style along with all the jaw-dropping features like the powder-coated steel legs make Ark a simple-yet-sophisticated sofa to add to one’s living room. Best of all, Ark is created with adequate spacing between the cushion and the floor thus making it easier for cleaning.
Much like Drape, Ark is also available in various upholstery options, and whether you choose the end module, centre module, corner module, or all of them, there are hundreds of materials to choose from.
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="aligncenter wp-image-70823 size-full" src="https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Ark_Modular_Sofa_Steelcut_Trio_3_133_Ark_Modular_Sofa_Hallingdal_65_110_Ark_Armchair_Canvas_2_134-e1681368389756.jpg" alt="Normann Copenhagen" width="768" height="626">
Off Chair gets its inspiration from the need to work comfortably, so it follows the elements of an office chair with a more fashionable design front. It looks classy with its rounded rectangular shape.
Off Chair can be opted in either the fixed four-point legs or five legs with wheels, and people can also choose between having an armrest or not. Best suited for both office and home, every person sitting on Off Chair would most definitely appreciate its mechanical features and seamless look.
Rib, which will remind you of the Nordic summerhouses in the 1960s, is the storage cabinet that features an appealing exterior design without compromising on its storage capacity. Given that it comes with detachable shelves, the Rib can be easily adjusted to the needs of each individual.
Rib has two renditions – the smaller one which is the Rib Cabinet and the larger one which is the Rib Sideboard.
One of the most classic pieces from Normann Copenhagen, Turn Table is back with its design elevated with designer Simon Legald adding two new colours – black marble and white marble.
Allowing for adjustable height via rotation, the Turn Table comes with a bell-shaped steel base that makes the table look stunning and sturdy at the same time.
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="aligncenter wp-image-70819 size-full" src="https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/2021_Scala_Table_H75_O150cm_Marble_Coffee_Hyg_Dining_JA159_01-1-e1681368460234-1.jpg" alt="Normann Copenhagen" width="500" height="570">
As Normann Copenhagen defines it, the Scala table is the “ultimate adaptable table,” as these tables are made to fit the space of your choice. Besides letting people pick between oak or marble top with steel bases, each Scala table resembles your old-fashioned furniture design, perfect for people who appreciate classic and vintage designs.
To take a closer look at each piece, visit Normann Copenhagen’s showroom at 31 Queen’s Road East, Wan Chai.

Art Central 2023 saw a dazzling reinterpretation of traditional Chinese aesthetics through the creation of a three-dimensional contemporary shanshui sculpture from copper wires and natural waste wood.
As the Lead Partner of Art Central, UOB presented Interwoven: Wired Shanshui &#8211; a large-scale interactive ink art installation by Hong Kong contemporary Chinese ink artist Margaret Yeung for the first time at the UOB Art Space. The installation, commissioned by UOB, comprises recycled copper wires and natural waste wood discarded from storms. It transforms the conventional viewing experience of a two-dimensional landscape painting into a three-dimensional contemporary shanshui.
Having spent months collecting her raw materials, the artist dedicated hours upon hours to delicately twist and bend the oxidised copper wires, exuding the same effect as painting lines with a brush dipped in Chinese ink. The upcycling of wood, remnants of typhoons past, resemble hills and mountains from a distance, as if drawn from a classical shanshui literati painting. The myriad colours of the copper wires are a result of variations in oxidation and humidity, emblematic of the wonderful&nbsp;landscapes of the four seasons.
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="aligncenter wp-image-70394 size-full" src="//www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/3-e1679474174183.jpeg" alt=" Wired Shanshui" width="768" height="512" srcset="https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/3-e1679474174183.jpeg 768w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/3-e1679474174183-200x133.jpeg 200w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/3-e1679474174183-600x400.jpeg 600w" sizes="(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px" />
Amazing effect of copper wire 
Margaret Yeung has a passion for sustainability and encompasses her ethos into her artwork. Her studio is based in an industrial area in Fotan and she became sad to see so much waste discarded, including copper wires.
Sha says, “So I collect this copper wire and take the copper wire outside and then I twist them into trees. When I twist them, I find ‘oh my God’ I am just doing something that traditional Chinese painters do. They paint trees with brush and ink. But I create trees with my copper wire. Just like an old Chinese painter drawing a tree.”
“Another point is that copper wire when it is oxidized it will turn from a golden colour to dark brown, or to black. So, it is a very amazing effect”
She is a devotee of traditional Chinese landscape painting and wants to pass this rich cultural legacy through the generations and this reinterpretation of traditional Chinese aesthetics is one of her ways of doing so.
Yeung reinterprets traditional Chinese landscape painting by embracing contemporary materials and technology of our times. Copper wires and Chinese painting are two seemingly disparate elements. By interweaving them the artist seeks to deliver ‘hybridity’, a peaceful coexistence of the natural and the man-made, of the traditional and the contemporary. The contrasting materials are interwoven in harmony, connecting the past, present, and future of traditional Chinese aesthetics, whilst highlighting the hopeful progress of sustainability and environmental protection.
“That is why I find that my artwork is very meaningful to me, because I am a Chinese artist. But I am now living in Hong Kong in the 21st century. I have to use materials of the times. That is why I reuse material. Because if we don’t have copper wire, we don’t have Wi-Fi, we don’t have lights, we don’t have air con,” she says.
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="aligncenter wp-image-70395 size-full" src="//www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/1-1-e1679474219420.jpg" alt=" Wired Shanshui" width="768" height="512" srcset="https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/1-1-e1679474219420.jpg 768w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/1-1-e1679474219420-200x133.jpg 200w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/1-1-e1679474219420-600x400.jpg 600w" sizes="(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px" /> 
Trees show the four seasons 
Yeung enthusiastically points out that different trees are representative of the four seasons. A heavily oxidized golden leaf tree indicates autumn. “This kind of shape is an old Chinese ink painter’s tree, from the Ching dynasty,” says Yeung.
“Then this is the spring tree, you find that all leaves going upwards. Here is the summer – a tree just like fireworks.”
The trees positioned further back in the background are of a shaded blue colour, or bronze copper blue. “This is winter. They become blue because of the humidity; they turn blue naturally. I cannot control this.”
Her devotion to being a sustainable artist means that she seldom uses acrylic colours for her Chinese paintings on rice paper. She will collect rusted iron and then soak this in water and after about a month it becomes a home-made dark brown ink.
“When I mix them with Chinese ink, you will find very amazing effect on the rice paper. I cannot tell you how amazing it is. That is why I am a sustainability artist!”
Other artists now regularly give her their unused wood which she has used for sculptural works. “That is why it is very meaningful to me, because we can do art again and again and again,” she says. 
Yeung collaborated with and guided Guo Yin Kam, a student winner of the 2022 UOB Art in Ink Awards to create the Chinese ink art images for the digital interactive wall of the Interwoven: Wired Shanshui through UOB’s mentorship programme. The audience is invited to contemplate the harmony between man, nature and art through interaction with the installation.
This fits in with UOB’s theme at their booth this year which is sustainability from three perspectives: the environment, education, and D&amp;I, meaning diversity and inclusion. 
Further to this, the UOB Art Space contains 18 award-winning works from the 2022 UOB Art in Ink Awards, from calligraphy and painting to mixed media works spanning across the categories of Abstract, and Landscape or Figurative painting. Highlighted among the works featured is Melting Glacier by Christine Lee, winner of the 2022 UOB Ink Art of the Year Award. The artwork depicts a polar bear struggling to survive on a shrinking land of ice, aiming to convey the criticality of environmental protection. This is one of six of the artworks that have animation features.

A season of generous proportions and &#8217;70s-inspired curves and impressions, offering a heightened perception of the period&#8217;s fashion. A season of unpretentious sophistication that favours responsible design without sacrificing Roche Bobois&#8217;s savoir independence.&nbsp;
With mineral tones, browns, yellows, and ochres &#8211; an earthy palette &#8211; offset by a plethora of blues, spring 2023 blows hot and cold while balancing well-researched shapes and avant-garde techniques.&nbsp;
Roche Bobois also keeps building on its successful, current collections. Through new finishes, the furniture is given a fresh perspective: cutting-edge fabric, and fresh hues whilst conjuring intriguing glass expressions on a number of pieces.
Numerous sofas by designer Mauziro Manzoni have garnered attention, most notably the modular and roomy A-PROPOS, which has strikingly simple lines. Ample volume is combined with simple lines in the modular sofa set.

Christian Ghion is back at Roche Bobois with two distinctive pieces: the Sumito drinking table, named after a Japanese marble game, and the Autograph lamp, which resembles light painting in that it appears to create a line in the air.

The group&#8217;s expertise is showcased in extraordinary pieces, such as the Serpentine dining table by Fabrice Berrux.

Roche Bobois of Paris would like to welcome the collaboration of Raphael Navot &#8211; the named designer of the year 2023.
For the Paris edition of Maison&amp;Objet in January 2023, Roche Bobois was delighted to collaborate with Raphael Navot.
Raphael Navot, who was named designer of the year, will present &#8220;The Apothem Lounge&#8221; on this occasion. By carefully arranging an open structure to flood people with light and texture, this impressive piece aims to elicit a visual feeling. It is a big, circular hall that enables visitors to explore interiors without regard for purpose or context, much as on a theatrical stage where the visitors are players.
The Dot armchair and the Parrot ottoman, both from the Nativ collection, are the seats offered by Roche Bobois in the Apothem Lounge. The 2018 Roche Bobois collection Nativ has organic, natural lines. It begins a conversation between nature and society, accented by geometric accuracy and impromptu forms. The result is jewellery produced from premium materials that combine unheard-of manual artistry with semi-industrial methods.
About Raphael Navot
Raphael Navot, a professional designer was born in Jerusalem in 1977 and attended the Design Academy in Eindhoven, Netherlands. He now resides and works in Paris. Along with the Hôtel National des Arts et Métiers and most recently the Hôtel Dame des Arts, which will debut on 1 February, he also developed the Silencio club in partnership with David Lynch.

PRINTEMPS – ÉTÉ SPRING – SUMMER 2023

The Single Malt Scotch Whisky Brand Mortlach has put forth a multi-sensory experience titled “The Midnight Secrets” at K11 Musea from now until 14th March.

The first stop to “The Midnight Secrets” is located in Gold Ball, 2/F of K11 Musea. With the name Layer upon Layer, this piece of digital art is created by K11 Art Foundation artist, Jiayu Liu. Each pixel and particle from the sand bed to the waves is derived from real-time environmental data and geographic coordinates of the banks of the River Spey in Speyside, Scotland, to transport discoverers to the turbulent waves that hold the magic and mysteries of Mortlach, divulging the intricate details of the 2.81 distillation process created by the first legal distillery in the town of Dufftown. Viewers will be introduced to the brand’s history and its unique distillation method named “The Way”. They will also be invited to reveal their midnight inner beast amid the River Spey with the AR Instagram Filter at the entrance of Gold Ball.

MORTLACH REVEALS “THE MIDNIGHT SECRETS” IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCE AT K11 MUSEA

The Oriental Watch Company launched an advertisement campaign that encourages people to admire Hong Kong around them with four of their senses &#8211; sight, aroma, sound, and taste.
Naming the campaign Take Your Time to Rediscover the City, the bespoke horology brand has collaborated with Omelette Digital Agency to release four different videos each targeting a particular sensory organ.
<iframe loading="lazy" title="【Take Your Time to Listen - The Sound of 05:04】" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/IKTRrD1sFuQ" width="750" height="450" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
One video titled Take Your Time to Listen has veteran tram driver Captain Luk Wenwei taking the viewers on a tram ride while he asks everyone to set aside their phones and pay close attention to the different sounds that the vehicle makes.
He adds that ding ding which is an onomatopoeia that is commonly associated with transport is not the only thing you can hear. There are other sounds like the coins shaking around in the money box and the tram moving on its tracks.
<iframe loading="lazy" title="【Take Your Time to See: The Sight of 19:30】" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Pm_f8_-4BqY" width="750" height="450" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
Another video called Take Your Time to See features Wu Chi-Kai who has been crafting neon lights since he was 18.
While pointing to the radiating beauty of these neon lights, he also reminds people that these lights are not very common as they used to be. Hence, he asks people to observe the city around them and snap a photo whenever they see a neon light as it is definitely something special.
<iframe loading="lazy" title="【Take Your Time to Taste - The Taste of 11:00】" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/eo8rWuyBxj4" width="750" height="450" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
For the tasting video, which is called Take Your Time to Taste, the Oriental Watch Company invited the Tsui brothers of the Milktealogy project who discuss Hong Kong’s buzzing tea culture which is locally referred to as the Cha chaan teng culture.
<iframe loading="lazy" title="【Take Your Time to Smell: The Aroma of 15:30】" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/RYvCutlee3Q" width="750" height="450" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
Then, for aroma, audiences see Jonathan, who co-owns an aromatherapy brand, in the Take Your Time to Smell video.
In this clip, he mentions the different smells people come across in just a single street in the city. He advises everyone to concentrate on the different scents as they can be pretty therapeutic.
This new campaign, which is an extension of the brand’s previous one Take Your Time, strives to bring out the charms of Hong Kong where the watch company gets its roots from.

One of the most prominent brands for maintaining quality in visual and audio products, Bang &amp; Olufsen introduces Beosound Theatre, a rule-defying soundbar that transforms the concept of home theatre with a style. Its modular keel-like design is intended to reflect the effortless grace of sailboats, giving the appearance of resting on a sheet of aluminium and floating in the air as a fluid form.
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-69143" src="//www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Beosound-Theatre-0001-Sound-And-Vision-For-Your-Home-1-e1671691343676.png" alt="" width="700" height="525" srcset="https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Beosound-Theatre-0001-Sound-And-Vision-For-Your-Home-1-e1671691343676.png 700w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Beosound-Theatre-0001-Sound-And-Vision-For-Your-Home-1-e1671691343676-200x150.png 200w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Beosound-Theatre-0001-Sound-And-Vision-For-Your-Home-1-e1671691343676-600x450.png 600w" sizes="(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px" />
The Beosound Theatre features 12 speaker drivers, including two custom 6.5-inch long-throw woofers, and 800 watts of amplifier power to produce sound pressure levels up to 112 dB for a powerful and immersive cinema experience. Seamlessly integrating with any décor through its numerous customization options available in wood or fabric finish, it keeps your home clutter free of cables and wires.&nbsp;

Featuring the new three-dimensional sound functionality via a patent-pending combination of speakers that fire upwards, to the sides, and towards the listener, the Beosound Theatre gives an extraordinary spatial sound performance. Its modular design also applies to the TV screens and the cover of the soundbar, both of which are replaceable, the aluminium “wings” are also extendable for customers whose TV screens grow as they upgrade, proving that Beosound Theatre continues to provide perfectly integrated solutions promising longevity.

The soundbar is available in the colours Silver, Gold Tone and Black Anthracite while one can also choose from a fabric and an oak wood cover. The Beosound Theatre interface bracket provides the possibility to dock almost any screen to the soundbar while optimized for specific 55, 65 and 77” LG screens. In addition to the wall mount and table stand for placement, a motorized floor stand, as well as the motorized wall bracket are an option. All in all, these incredible features of the Beosound Theatre take the cinematic experience at home to a whole new level.
