20/20 Luxury Headphone Concept



The 20/20 concept explores the serendipitous match between Buckminster’s tensegrity structure, observed and filed away several years ago in a peculiar children’s toy, and the unique structural requirements of headphone adjustment mechanism. The semi-rigidity and organic flexibility of this architectural structure are a challenge for many possible applications, but perfect for the problem of accommodating the wide range of ear and head shapes that make up the human population.
