Design concept
_
 
Inspired by the instrument of the same shape, the Spangle (speaker + triangle) is a minimalist take on wireless audio that maximizes directional sound with its unique shape. Like the triangle instrument, the interactive design is automatically triggered on when the user makes contact with their phone. Control it with a phone, or use the touch-sensitive panel on the side opposite the speaker output to adjust the song, volume and more. 
MOTIVE
_

Bluetooth speaker whose motive comes from TRIANGLE [a percussion instrument by hanging a triangular iron bar]
It was inspired by the characteristics and shape of the triangle played through a simple action of hitting the triangular base with an iron bar.
 
 
CONCEPT
_
 
As if the triangle makes a sound when its body is hit by the bar, the speaker is switched on making a sound when the mobile phone touches Spangle. Because it has the same interaction as the triangle, it provides analogue and fun user experience. 
 
1. Volume Control
 
The volume is adjusted by touching the side of Spangle up and down. Touch upwards to turn the volume up, and touch 
downwards to turn it down.
2. Play & Stop
 
Click the round button in the center of Spangle to PLAY and STOP.
 
3. Next & Prev
 
Touch both faces contacting each other over the triangle to skip to the next or previous song.
4. Bluetooth & hang
 
As if the sound is made when the triangle and the bar hit each other, Spangle and  the mobile phone are connected
each other when they are contacted. The hole in the center also allows users to hang or carry Spangle.
