Döhmann Audio draws on many design influences from the aeronautical, automotive, architectural and technological design styles to ensure the products are functional and aesthetically pleasing. The aesthetic quality of a product is very important because products we use every day affect our person and our well-being.
Products that have well executed functional design can also be beautiful. Great design makes a product self-explanatory. Needless bling is avoided and if a sonic parameter is affected by a design feature then it has to be incorporated to improve the sound.
