Simon Ghahary
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Simon Ghahary (born 12 May 1972) is an English born artist, brand architect and lifestyle engineer from the United Kingdom known primarily for his unconventional speaker designs. Inspired by art, nature and technology he refers to his fantastical sculptural pieces as functional art. Developing new forms to accompany new ways of living, he has approached audio product design as an art in and of itself. His aesthetic is not only about the combination of performance and design but the space an object can create when not in use.
In 1992 Ghahary founded Blue Room loudspeakers which was then integrated into B & W Loudspeakers championed by Robert Trunz. This move made the global release of Ghahary's pod designs possible.
Blue Room Released
In 1994 Ghahary founded his music label Blue Room Released with the help of Robert Trunz [1] and Mick Paterson.[2] Globally representing electronic, techno, trance, dub, and breakbeat artists.
SiFi
In an effort to fully realize an eco conscious work/life esthetic, Ghahary began si-fi.com. To design, manufacture and market high fidelity design conscious products to the domestic market, in such a way as to raise the company’s profile, satisfy customers, and contribute to the future well being of the company, industry and consumer is the overreaching goal. The innovative packaging of his minipods and the use of eco friendly ceramics for his Orb 1 speakers,[3] being primary examples of this work ethic.
