With its latest iteration, German audio company Loewe Technology is thinking outside the concrete box when it comes to television design.
Upon first glance, the Iconic might look like a regular 4K OLED flatscreen, but look closer, and you will see that a great stone structure supports it. The brand describes this as ‘Syno-Stone’, made from a blend of organically-sourced recycled—and fully recyclable—materials to make it look like concrete.
The base was constructed by Anders, a material company based in Loewe Technology’s hometown of Kronach, Germany.
The Iconic is not just a piece of rugged contemporary technology; it also houses impressive specs. It has a 55- or 65-inch display capable of hosting HLG, HDR10, and Dolby Vision. Furthermore, its OLED display produces deep local contrast, intense black levels to make other hues pop, and a wider viewing range, according to the company.
Its speakers are embedded into the stone and offer Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, and WDAL. If you’re looking for full surround sound, you can hook up two optional wireless front speakers, two rear speakers, and a subwoofer.
The television comes in a Graphite Gray and Clay White. Due to its weight, you may need to ask someone from Loewe Technology’s dealership to install it for you.
The Iconic will retail for US$9,546.69 and US$7,756.49.
