Iconico by Héctor Serrano for Lexon

Maison&Objet 2013: Spanish designer Héctor Serrano will launch a portable speaker designed to look like the sound icon from a computer at Maison&Objet in Paris this week.

Called Iconico, the speaker for French brand Lexon can be switched off simply by turning it face down. "It's a playful, intuitive and simple object to listen to your music everywhere in high sound quality," says Serrano.

Iconico is made of ABS plastic and comes in dark grey and white. It's intended for use with mobile phones and connects via a 3.5 millimetre stereo audio cable.

Maison&Objet takes place in Paris from 18 to 22 January.

Other speakers we've featured include one that straps over your sneakers and another with a fabric control panel. See all our stories about speaker design »
